Marco de Tullio<\/strong> concluded the penultimate day of the Italian Championships with victory in the 200 free in 1:46.29.<\/p>\n

De Tullio, part of the Italian 4×200 relay squad that won bronze at last year’s European Championships, was third at halfway behind national record-holder Filippo Megli<\/strong> and Stefano di Cola<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

However, the 21-year-old turned on the speed with a 53.98 second 100 – and 26.50 final 50 – to take the title.<\/p>\n

Although it was outside the cut to make the Italian team, it was inside the Fina A cut.<\/p>\n

A final 50 of 26.79 propelled Gabriele Detti<\/strong> from seventh to second in 1:47.50 with Di Cola next home in 1:47.55 as six men finished inside 1:48.<\/p>\n

Silvia di Pietro<\/strong> went 24.97 in the 50 free prelims and returned in the evening to post 25.10 ahead of Chiara Tarantino<\/strong> in 25.42.<\/p>\n

Piero Codia\u00a0<\/strong>won the men’s 100 fly in 51.65, outside the cut of 51.10 but within the Fina A time of 51.96.<\/p>\n

Out in 23.76 – 0.59 faster than anyone else in the field – the Italian record holder came back in 27.89 to finish 0.39 ahead of Olympic 200 fly bronze medallist Federico Burdisso<\/strong> who stopped the clock at 52.04 with Matteo Rivolta<\/strong> third in 52.16.<\/p>\n

Matteo Restivo<\/strong>\u00a0won the men’s 200 back in 1:57.56, 0.15 ahead of Lorenzo Mora<\/strong> who made inroads into the 0.61 deficit in 1:57.71.<\/p>\n

Margherita Panziera<\/strong> took the 100 back in 1:00.25 after overcoming a 0.77 deficit at halfway behind Silvia Scala<\/strong> who clocked 1:00.33.<\/p>\n

Panziera, the Italian record holder, was outside the cut of 59.50, although both were inside the Fina A time.<\/p>\n

Ilario Cusinato<\/strong> won the 200 fly in 2:10.36, outside both the cut and Fina A time,<\/p>\n

Luca Pizzini<\/strong> took the men’s 200br title in 2:10.98<\/p>\n
