On the first day of competitions, the Canavese backstroke of the Milanese club In Sport Rane Rosse finished in eighth place the qualifiers for the final with the final time of 2’16 “12, while in the afternoon Pasquino managed to lower by almost 2 ” the morning time, managing to close in sixth position with the final time of 2’14 ”43, with a delay of 8”87 by the winner Margherita Panziera of the Gruppo Sportivo Fiamme Oro. It went even better yesterday, Thursday 1 April, with an excellent sixth place in qualifying with a time of 1’01 “82 out of thirty-three swimmers, then finishing fifth in the final, finishing the test in 1’01” 24, at only 1”49 from the winner, again Margherita Panziera, and only 21 cents from the podium.

An extremely positive two days especially as regards the 200 m backstroke race, because never before has Pasquino managed to hit the final in this specialty, as he says: “An incredible result, never before had I managed to enter in the final in the 200 meters backstroke, it was a great emotion. Congratulations to Margherita Panziera who, thanks to these times, will go to the Olympic Games in Tokyo this summer. Speaking exquisitely of the time achieved – he underlines – I could also do better: my record in this discipline was in fact 2’13 “30 and I hoped to finish the test staying as close as possible to this time, but that’s fine: being able to getting into the top eight is already a dream come true. Even yesterday I cannot complain at all, also because it must be considered that I arrived from a very busy day and it was absolutely not easy to get these times ». He adds: «Even my coach Gianni Anselmetti was very happy with these results, the result of so much effort in training in preparing for this event, which I really cared about a lot. In these two days of competitions I have always given my best. There was a beautiful atmosphere, both in and out of the pool, because the competition was very difficult and the level in both the 200m and the 100m was very high, with all backstrokes battling to the last stroke ». –
