PROVO, Utah – The BYU men’s swim and dive team represented the program well during the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation Championships with 18 Cougars being named 2018-19 All-Conference honorees.

“These awards are a great way to represent BYU’s conference achievements in the water,” BYU head coach John Brooks said.

Senior Payton Sorenson led the team with five honors, including two first-team and three second-team placements. Levi Jensen followed with four second-team honors.Freshman Tama Tuitama claimed a first-team award and two second-team awards, while teammates Jared Shaw and Levi Jensen earned three second-team honors apiece. Divers Morgan Cooper and Nathan Gonzales earned an award in each diving event, Cooper taking one first-team and two second-team awards and Gonzales taking three second-team awards. 

First and second teams are determined by the placings in the MPSF Championships individual and relay events. The top-three finishers in each individual event and the first-place relay team are awarded first-team All-Conference. Second-team honors are earned by placing fourth through eighth in the individual events or on the second- and third-place relay teams.

Overall, the BYU men earned seven first-team awards and 33 second-team awards out of the 18 athletes honored.
