In an attempt to seize one last competition at the Spieker Aquatic Complex, the Bears lost their momentum and handed a win to the Cardinal.

In the “Battle of the Bay,” No. 8 Cal and No. 5 Stanford are facing off in what is the Bears’ last dual meet before the Pac-12 championship.

Cal women's swim and dive added another win to its collection this season. Though not a simple task, the Bears made it look like one.

The Bears ended day one of competition the same way they started — making waves in national times and ranks.

At the Chick-fil-A Invitational in Fresno, the Bears swam their way into first place, making history and breaking pool records.

The Bears will dive into competitive territory as they face off against the likes of UCLA, Washington State and host Fresno State this weekend.

In this special joint meet, the Bears raced both USC and UCLA twice. Styled after the Pac-12 championship meet, this arduous weekend opened and closed with the Bears on top.

Cal has high expectations this year, a result of its No. 7 national rank and the fact that it was runner-up at the 2019 and 2020 Pac-12 championship meets.

At the end of the regular season, the Bears had 14 swimmers and one diver qualify for the NCAA championships and all have been named All-Americans.

Cal senior and Olympic gold medalist Abbey Weitzeil became the first woman to break the 21-second barrier in the 50-yard freestyle as the Bears dominated the Minnesota Invitational.
