Marina Kuč debuting for Montenegro

Tomorrow in Helsinki starts European Swimming Championship in 25 m pools, and Montenegro will be represented by Marina Kuč, one of the most talented European swimmers. Two years ago, on the Olympic Games in Athens, Marina won 15th place in 200 m breaststroke race, so she is expected to achieve as better classification in this discipline as possible. Her Coach, Thorsten Pirsch, wishes for one finals, since Montenegrin representative will also swim in 50 m and 100 m breaststroke races.

– I am slowly getting into shape, and on the recent Meeting in the Netherlands, I had very proper time in my favourite discipline – 200 m breaststroke. I won secon place, but I have to say that it is more difficult to swim in short polls and they are not my specialty. Even though, I will try to achieve the best result possible. I had long preparations, and whether they were sufficient, it will be shown during the Championship – told Marina Kuč for daily «Pobjeda» in the phone converstion from Helsinki.

Young Montenegrin swimmer will swim tomorrow in the 50 m breaststroke race. Championship ends on 10. December.
