They were interviewed after the win and kept talking about how their strength is that they're a very good team.

 

But it's basically Popovici dragging two +51s boys with close to WR times 

To be fair the anchor was pretty good.

It took me a while to figure out what nationality had the code NMA. I would have thought the Northern Mariana Islands would go by NMI.

Japanese were 8 seconds slower in the mixed medley than at junior Pan Pacs. I guess they've sent mostly a B team to junior Worlds.

I guess this will be our most successful junior worlds ever (and maybe we will win the medal table?) because no one bothered to show up.  I mean, our current junior generation is... somewhat okay/good? But not amazing, that's for sure, so these gold medals will look weird in the history books. 

 

But who knows, maybe Pádár and Molnár will turn out to be truly great talents on the senior level in the next few years.

That is awesome that our swimming reached such a level that we can be competitive in relays with countries like Italy, Hungary, Japan.

 

Our boys won the 2nd heat of 4x200 Freestyle, will have to wake up again to see if they'll hang on to a medal

One thing you never expect to read when you wake up the morning:

We apparently lead in the medal table, its shocker, even though that all big nations didnt compete here.
