After leading the medal table on day 1, Greece still stands at the top of the table after night 2. The country picked up another gold medal in the men’s 50 butterfly as Marios Stergios Bilas earned the win. The country was just off of earning another bronze as they touched 3rd in the medley relay but were ultimately disqualified.
Israel picked up another relay gold after winning the women’s 4x 200 free relay last night in a national record. Tonight, the team won the 4x 100 mixed medley relay. Israel originally touched second behind Poland but Poland was disqualified.
Hungary leads the total medals category with nine total. They picked up their first gold tonight as Ajna Kesely won the women’s 800 freestyle.
Czech Republic’s 1-2 finish in the women’s 100 freestyle puts them on the board along with bronze in the mixed medley relay after disqualifications from Poland and Greece.
Notably, Portugal’s Camila Rebelo won the first ever European title for the country as she won the women’s 200 backstroke in a new national record time of a 2:08.85 to kick off the night. She broke her own national record that she set last March.
