(Patria) - Bosnian swimmer Zerina Vrabac (15) won a silver medal in the 200m butterfly at the 18th Summer European Youth Olympic Festival (EYOF).

It is the second medal for Bosnian athletes at the EYOF, which is being held in Skopje and Kumanovo in North Macedonia, as well as in the Croatian co-host city of Osijek.

Vrabac swam the distance in the final in a time of 2:15.54 and finished second.

The best was Hungarian Boroka Zsofia Kertesz, who achieved a time of 2:12.05, while Italian Michelle Montagnini finished third with a time of 2:16.51.

The first medal, a gold one, for the Bosnian team at this competition was won last night by shot putter Enhar Mahmić (17), with a new personal best of 19.34 metres.

Mahmić also improved his personal best with the 5-kilogram shot by as much as 55 centimetres, as his previous personal best, set on 21 December last year at an indoor meeting in Belgrade, was 18.79 metres.
