Siva Sridhar of Jain University surged to five gold medals to go with his lone bronze, as competition day six of the Khelo India University Games (KIUG) 2022 Uttar Pradesh experienced one of the lightest schedules of the third edition of the competition.
It was enough for Siva to sink his own meet record in the Men's 400m medley however, his 4.37.21mins on the day was better than the 4:38.98 mins set in the previous edition. Aneesh Gowda was second. He also won the 4x100 Medley along with teammates to add to his gold tally. Aneesh however took the men's 200m freestyle title later to narrow the gap. Both the swimmers now have seven medals each from the pool as they also won silver and bronze in the men's 100m Butterfly late in the day. Not far away from Gautambuddh Nagar's Shaheed Vijay Singh Pathik (SVSP) stadium, where Siva was creating waves in the pool, Manavaditya Singh Rathore and Kirti Gupta were also helping Manav Rachna University win their third shooting gold, with the Trap Mixed Team title. They shot a combined 139 out of 150 targets to secure the win ahead of Delhi University's Daksh Singh and Aashima Ahlawat, who shot 137. The second gold at the shooting range went to the India international duo of R Narmada Nithin and Sri Karthik Sabari Raj of Madras University who got the better of Delhi University Sports Council's Anshika Gupta and Samarvir Singh 17-13 in the 10m Air Rifle Mixed Team final. Mehuli Ghosh and Srinjoy Datta of Adamas University won bronze.
