Petra Sen\u00e1nszky Lowers Hungarian 50 Free Record At National Championships<\/h4>\n

Petra Sen\u00e1nszky\u00a0<\/strong>set a national 50 free record and 15-year-old Bor\u00f3ka Kert\u00e9sz\u00a0<\/strong>upset her senior peers in the 200 fly on day two of the Hungarian s\/c Championships in Debrecen.<\/p>\n

Sen\u00e1nszky accelerated in the second half of the race and shaved 0.19 off her previous record in 24.11 to take gold ahead of Lora Komor\u00f3czy<\/strong> (24.57) and Panna Ugrai<\/strong> (24.78).<\/p>\n

She said through the Hungarian Federation:\u00a0“On Wednesday I felt that I was in good shape, as I swam a very, very good time in our mixed freestyle relay. I tried to take it further today and get the fifty out of myself, I’m happy that I succeeded.”<\/p>\n

Ugrai was in the lead for a long time in the 200 fly, but in the end it was not Dalma Sebesty\u00e9n<\/strong> who caught her, but the young talent of J\u00f6v\u0151 SC, Kert\u00e9sz, born in 2010, who practically took the lead at 198m to take gold in an age group record of 2:08.17.<\/p>\n

“We didn’t expect a gold medal at all, my coaches and I said that I should try to swim under 2:10, it will be just fine,” said a shocked Kert\u00e9sz.\u00a0 “It’s going to be very hard to fall asleep tonight, that’s for sure.”<\/p>\n

Szebaszti\u00e1n Szab\u00f3<\/strong> won the men’s 50 free in 21.22, \u00c1d\u00e1m J\u00e1sz\u00f3<\/strong> added the 100 back to his 50 title (50.74) and D\u00e1vid Betlehem<\/strong> took the 400 free in 3:41.78, a day after his rankings topper in the 1500. Rich\u00e1rd M\u00e1rton<\/strong> took the men’s 200 fly in 1:52.18.<\/p>\n

Komor\u00f3czy also completed the 50\/100 back double with a 58.58 victory in the longer race while Ajna Kesely matched Betlehem’s feat with 400 gold in 4:05.35.<\/p>\n
