The days go by and are not alike in Saint-Raphaël, theater of the elite French championships. This Saturday, the day after a disillusionment in the 100 m breaststroke, Camille Dauba was, this time, at the center of the discussions on the 200 m breaststroke. Third in the series, the Sarregueminoise touched down in the final in 2’27”67, a sufficiently satisfactory time to take a beautiful silver medal but also so infuriating, since she sees the title slip away in her hands for … Two hundredths .
Aurélie Muller, she did not display the same regrets. La Mosellane showed promise in the 1500m freestyle, without meeting all its expectations. Not so far in the end (16’45”50) of the 16’40 she hoped to achieve, Aurélie Muller will be able to console herself with a silver medal, dearly acquired and which offered her interesting benchmarks in view of her Japanese goal. . Further, a little lower in the hierarchy, the other Lorrainers in the running were not unworthy either. Thionvillois Yanis Dutel, third in the B final of the 50m butterfly, even took the opportunity to plan his personal best in the series (24”44), something that his younger brother Lilian Schug (SN Metz) did not have managed to do, to finish 40th in the series in 25”82. Finally, if Clément Schaefer (Thionville) did not succeed either (31st in the 100m breaststroke series), Zachary Werhann (SN Metz) approached 29 hundredths (4 ‘ 37”59) from his personal best over 400m medley by finishing eighth in the B final.
