Niklas Mondroch secured a 2nd place (200m medley male). Charlotte Wendel took 2nd place twice (50m butterfly female & 200m medley female).
Finally, Charlotte Wendel won the final over 100m freestyle, securing 1st place and thus achieving the second best performance in the entire competition in terms of points (661).
