Kristóf Rasovszky Dives In with the University of Pannonia Team

Kristóf Rasovszky, Olympic and world champion swimmer, represented the University of Pannonia at the National University Swimming Championships. Despite his impressive participation, the overall title went to the University of Physical Education

This year, 297 competitors took to the pool in the stunning Gödöllő swimming complex. Awards were presented separately for the best licensed and amateur swimmers in individual events, but the true competition unfolded among the 19 educational institutions vying for the overall victory. After a seven-year gap, the University of Physical Education emerged victorious, while the University of Pannonia, strengthened by Rasovszky’s participation, secured fourth place.

“I’ve gained so much from my university during my years here, so I think it’s the least I can do to give back by coming to a competition once a year on a Sunday,” said Rasovszky about his involvement. He added, “I’d love to see more national team swimmers at university championships—it would mean they’re all studying and thinking about life after swimming. But let’s not be greedy—it was great to meet others here, including teammates from the national squad.”
