The open swimming competition of the First National Student (Youth) Games ended at the Guangxi Sports Center Swimming and Diving Hall on the 4th. The Qingdao team became the winner of the day, winning 3 gold medals and 2 bronze medals in 10 competitions.

The most exciting pool showdown of the night came from the last event – the men’s and women’s 4X100-meter medley relay. The gap between the top three teams in the preliminaries was within 1 second. After the starting gun sounded, teams from Hangzhou, Xi’an, Wuhan, and Guangzhou took the lead alternately. The order of the top three teams was rewritten almost every time they turned around. In the final freestyle competition, the Nanjing team, which ranked first in the preliminaries, relied on Zhang Xumeng to hit the wall first and win the duel in a thrilling manner.

Yu Jingming, the first swimmer of the Zhengzhou team in this relay race, led the way in the men’s 200m backstroke earlier in the night and easily won the championship.

“I went all out in the two important finals tonight and bought more time for my teammates in the relay race. Although I only won the individual gold medal in the end, I believe I did my best.” Yu Jingming Said after the game.

In other competitions that night, the men’s 800-meter freestyle competition was not decided until the last 20 meters. Qingdao team Zhang Zhanshuo, who won the men’s 400-meter individual medley championship on the 3rd, made another victory. His teammate Wang Xizhe first won the men’s 100-meter butterfly championship, and then won the men’s 4X200-meter freestyle relay gold medal with the team. Yang Peiqi of the Wuhan team won the first place in the women’s 400-meter freestyle. The women’s 200-meter backstroke and women’s 100-meter butterfly championships went to Zhang Jingyan of the Baoding team and Chen Luying of the Fuzhou team respectively. Dong Zhihao of the Nanjing team and Chen Peilin of the Macau team won the men’s and women’s 50 meters respectively. First place in breaststroke.
