Yes, Martynas Alekna is participating in U20 and his younger brother Mykolas is going to start in the Olympic Youth Festival. They also have a younger sister already in athletics as well.

Oooph, this seems like it's going to be a disaster for Lithuania. Starting off with three of our good athletes injured, followed by one of the favourites Juškevičiūtė with a disaster in the Heptahlon hurdles followed by NM in high jump. Last place and under 12 metres for our triple jumper. Last place in women's discus throw in about 50 minutes. And bottom places for our shot putters fairly soon. Only Alekna, Andriukaitytė and Galvydytė can save this championship now and the girls both are having an off-season

That's surely an interesting case

Well, a pretty much expected gold, just did not expect that the final would be won with the first jump Really wanted 14m+ win for style points. It's a gold for Lithuania in triple jump, 4 years after Dovilė Dzindzaletaitė did the same and now they're brawling together over who holds our national record Also, in the spirit of smaller teams, it's nice to win this gold on the same day that Croatia gets theirs @dcro

13.89 for Zagainova, that should be okay for extra three jumps It's nice to start confidently.

The first moment when everyone can fit under a flag after a finals race

Women's 100m Hurdles final is going to be three Belarusians, three French and two Pole athletes. Not entirely certain if there ever was a final this under-represented

Our athletics is really bringing it home for Lithuania three medals already and Edis Matusevičius up tomorrow.

My prayers have been answered.

It's a bronze universiade for us. Come on, Liveta! Throw 60+

What a triple jump final

Well, our team is rather small and broken Ickys, Baikštys, Baikštytė out with injuries Diana Zagainova should be the favourite to win gold in the women's triple jump, other than that, perhaps a top 8 result in hammer throw from Vasiliauskas and can expect a solid run from Truskauskas in 200m

Edis Matusevičius improved his own Lithuanian national record in Javelin Throw to 84.93 in Universiade qualification this morning. 7 centimetres away from Olympic qualification, it is also his third throw over 84 metres.

That's why I'm leaving this difficult work to my Swimming and Athletics federations, so that they keep me posted on any good results that may happen over there It seems that Andrius Šidlauskas is in the final of 100m Breaststroke, with a SB result and the second time he swims under the Olympic A time.

Of course, Kotryna just had to make me look stupid, swam 7 seconds off of her PB and didn't qualify to 200m Breaststroke semifinals

Nice, first race and already a medal for Kotryna Teterevkova. Quite surprised that she did it in the 50m breaststroke. I've regarded her best chances to be 100m and 200m breaststroke, since 50m is the discipline where Šeleikaitė (our second best breaststroker after Teterevkova, now that Meilutytė is retired) always beat her, so this silver is a bit unexpected.

Well, she's been an up and coming triple jumper in Lithuania alongside Dovilė. Although she underperformed in U20 champs. Her results steadily got better and she took 13.80ish to 14+ this year, jumped over 14 metres in three competitions and now this very good jump that nets her the European U23 lead, coming into the championships. So she might just win a gold there just like Dovilė all those years ago.

Women's Triple Jump Diana Zagainova - 14.43 This is also a new Lithuanian national record, it was recently broken by Dovilė Dzindzaletaitė (14.26), so it's gonna be an era of triple jump record breaking here in Lithuania

Thanks for the information. Didn't know what to make of him, because the only good results from him that appeared in our media was various world cups.

Alright, can someone interested in gymnastics tell me if Robert Tvorogal's gold medal is something to be excited about or is the field in gymnastics not very serious in these games? Cause I honestly have no clue.

What the actual fuck was that from the Russian ??? Edit: this is for cycling-track

I really hope that the confidence from these European Games will translate and help Simona break the curse of Olympic Games! Amazing gold, she really fought for it!!!!

Proud of Laura, she was awesome!!! Hello Olympics! Also, solid performance from Gintarė Venčkauskaitė, coming in fourth.

Okay, that was also fairly hectic.

I don't know, that moment when the horse tried to do a backflip, it looked fairly stylish.
