Senior Payton Sorenson recorded the fastest time in the country in the 50-yard freestyle to highlight BYU swim and dive’s first day of the Mizzou Invite on Thursday.

“Today was an awesome meet with great spirits and great racing,” BYU head coach John Brooks said. “A lot of swimmers received career-high times, and Gwen [Gustafson] broke into BYU’s top-five 50-free times. It was a good time, and it shows that hard work pays off.”

With a time of 19.43, Sorenson placed first during prelims and claimed the fastest time in the nation this morning.
