As if making Olympic history wasn't enough for Dara Torres, the former Gator is leaving her mark on the American swimming record books as well.
Torres- who on Friday became the oldest woman to qualify for an Olympic swimming event with a qualifying time in the 100 meter freestyle- qualified for the 50 meter freestyle in Beijing, setting a new American record in the processs.
The record changed hands twice over the weekend before Torres took the record back with a 24.25-second swim.
