Adding more hardware for Hungary was Lora Komoroczy who took the gold in the girls’ 50m backstroke.
All told, through two days of competition Hungary stands atop the overall medal table with 6 medals including 4 golds. Italy dropped down to hold steady in second place with 5 medals, including 3 gold.
