He represented Italy at the 2025 European Junior Championships and advanced to the final of the 100m fly and the semifinal of the 50m fly. He then raced at the 2025 World Aquatics Junior Championships where he placed 12th in the 100m fly and 16th in the 50m fly.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, he earned lifetime bests in the 200m free and 50m fly at the Italian Short Course Championships.<\/p>\n<p>In LCM, his best times include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>50 fly \u2013 24.22<\/li>\n<li>100 fly \u2013 52.80<\/li>\n<li>200 fly \u2013 2:02.33<\/li>\n<li>50 free \u2013 23.57<\/li>\n<li>100 free \u2013 50.05<\/li>\n<li>200 free \u2013 1:50.33<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In SCY, those times convert to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>50 fly &#8211; 21.18<\/li>\n<li>100 fly &#8211; 46.30<\/li>\n<li>200 fly &#8211; 1:47.68<\/li>\n<li>50 free &#8211; 20.51<\/li>\n<li>100 free &#8211; 43.64<\/li>\n<li>200 free &#8211; 1:36.51<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ceolin&#8217;s a huge get for the Crimson.
