Utah Tech picked up three event victories and clocked several top-10 all-time marks at the team's sprint dual meet at BYU on Friday afternoon at the Richards Building Pool. 
 
Alyssa Gordon posted the Trailblazers' first win of the day in the 200-yard individual medley with a season PR time of 2:07.44 (altitude adjusted). Earlier in the meet, the junior swam the ninth-fastest time in program history in the 100 IM with a third place 59.64 (altitude adjusted).
 
Fellow junior Nia Turagavou followed suit in the 50 free with a season PR time of 23.98, and placed third in the 100 free at 52.18 (altitude adjusted).
 
Senior Mary Sims Cross recorded Utah Tech's final event win of the day, which came in the 100 back in a time of 55.93 (altitude adjusted). Cross also touched the wall second in the 100 IM at 58.20 (altitude adjusted), which was the sixth-fastest time in that event in school history. 
 
In the short sprint events, junior Tavia Stemmons clocked the fifth-fastest 50 fly time in program history at 25.77, while freshman Alyssa Soderquist followed with the eighth-fastest mark ever at Utah Tech with a fifth-place 25.86. 
 
In addition, junior Jenna Tracy swam the third-fastest time in the 50 breast with a third-place 30.03. 
 
Utah Tech opens its home meet slate as hosts of the Sixth-Annual Trailblazer Invitational, which will be held Nov. 18-21, at the UT HPC Pool.
