Andrew Bree was out of the medals in Korea

Lisburn swimmer Michael Williamson claimed a superb bronze medal in the World Student Games in Korea on Sunday.

Those behind Williamson in the 200 metres breaststroke final in Daegu include his fellow-Northern Ireland man Andrew Bree who had to be satisfied with sixth place.

The Lisburn man clocked 2:15.52 to win Ireland's first swimming medal at the University games since Gary O'Toole told gold in the same event in 1991.

Qualifying from the morning heats in a time of 2:16.67 secs, he lined up for the final as the sixth fastest qualifier.

Bree, who has been ranked as Ireland's top 200m breaststroke swimmer over the past number of years, clocked 2:16.68.

Portstewart swimmer Emma Robinson finished seventh in the women's 50m breaststroke final with a time of 32.91 after clocking 32.72 in the heats.
