Antaeus7 Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 So far today, Kiriakos Zotos qualifies for the finals in men's shot put. He will also compete in discus throw. In 30 minutes qualification of the men's javelin throw. I expect Ioannis Kyriazis to qualify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antaeus7 Posted July 14, 2017 Author Share Posted July 14, 2017 Iliana Korosidou automatically qualifies for the finals with a throw of 65.34m. No such luck for Stamatia Skarvelis to join her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antaeus7 Posted July 14, 2017 Author Share Posted July 14, 2017 In women's shot put Stamatia Skarvelis had better luck in qualifying for the finals with a throw of 15.79m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antaeus7 Posted July 14, 2017 Author Share Posted July 14, 2017 (edited) Kiriakos Zotos finished 10th in men's shot put Irini-Ria Mihala finished 13th place timed 35:04.60 which is her personal best. Usually, long-distance running is not a strength for Greece. She could have a positive future in other long-distance running events. Only 19 years old!

Antaeus7 Posted July 15, 2017 Author Share Posted July 15, 2017 Theodora Arabatzi qualifies with her personal best at 54.79m. She will be just two Greek athletes competing tomorrow with Zaharias Tsamoudakis in the 20k race walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antaeus7 Posted July 15, 2017 Author Share Posted July 15, 2017 (edited) Today, 4 Greek athletes competing in field event finals for a chance at the medals Ioannis Kyriazis given the greatest chance. Iliana Korosidis might have a shot if she throws way better than her personal best at 66.68m. Both Eleni Polak and Stamatia Skarvelis don't have much of a chance, but hopefully give us a good showing.

Antaeus7 Posted July 19, 2017 Author Share Posted July 19, 2017 In the Under 20 European Championship in Grosseto, Italy Miltiadis Tentoglou and Emmanouil Karalis are heavy favorites to medal for Greece. The rest? I wish them the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antaeus7 Posted July 21, 2017 Author Share Posted July 21, 2017 Good news for some Greek runners Anna Kafia in the 400m hurdle won her heat with a time of 59.48 to go to the semifinals. Athanasios Kalakos in the 800 m finished 2nd in the heat with a time of 1:52:55 to go the semifinals. Yesterday in the 1500 m, Giorgios-Panagiotis Miliaras qualified for the finals finishing with a time of 3:48:88. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antaeus7 Posted July 21, 2017 Author Share Posted July 21, 2017 Very shocked and disbelieve that Emmanouil Karalis has been eliminated from the qualifying round without a single mark. I had high hopes he was going to medal like he was before. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antaeus7 Posted July 21, 2017 Author Share Posted July 21, 2017 First medal in the under 20 European Championship for Greece goes to Odisseas Mouzenidis in men's shot put and it's bronze. He broke the Under 20 national record with a throw of 20.67. He was 8 centimeters short of breaking the Greek national record (20.74). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He broke the Under 20 national record with a throw of 20.67. He was 8 centimeters short of breaking the Greek national record (20.74). He is quite far from breaking the Greek NT of 20.74. The record he broke today is with the junior shot which weighs 6 kg. The men's shot weighs 7.26 kg. His best mark this year with men's shot put is 18.46 m. He is considered as one of the biggest talents in Greek track. Karalis failed because during one of his jumps his pole broke and he could not continue. Good job by my patrioti Tentoglou who won the gold in long jump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antaeus7 Posted July 21, 2017 Author Share Posted July 21, 2017 Thanks for the info on Karalis, I didn't exactly WATCHED the event, instead I was following the information on the results instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antaeus7 Posted July 22, 2017 Author Share Posted July 22, 2017 (edited) Athanasios Kalakos won the semifinal heat in stunning fashion to break the U 20 national record at 1:48.59. He will be in lane 8 tomorrow for a chance at a medal. Edited July 22, 2017 by Molon Lave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antaeus7 Posted July 22, 2017 Author Share Posted July 22, 2017 Sadly, Anna Kafia just missed the finals by 0.02 seconds. Krima! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
