Košice, Belgrade SRB (19-21.05.2017) Slovaks also traveled in a large group to the historically first European Championships in the older pupils category. Among them were our best freestyle wrestlers from Košice, the new Slovak champion among cadets Jakub Zavacký and the pupil Slovak champion Viktor Váňa. We are bringing home a beautiful 8th place from the debut championship.
On the first day of competition, Jakub Zavacký competed in the 53 kg weight category. The draw assigned him an ISR, with whom he lost 4:10 after a fighting performance. After the ISR's loss to a BLR 3:8, Jakub did not advance to further fights.
In the 85 kg weight category, Viktor Váňa pleased us right in the first match, when he defeated an MDA by fall. In the second round, a GEO awaited him, to whom he lost 6:8 despite a great fighting spirit. The final 8th place from the European Championships is a beautiful result. ah
We sincerely congratulate the boys!!!
