BERKELEY – After setting a pair of Cal dual-meet records in the Golden Bears' meet at Stanford last weekend, sophomore Abbey Weitzeil has been named the Pac-12 Swimmer of the Week.
 
Against the Cardinal, Weitzeil won the 50-yard freestyle in 22.04, breaking her own Cal dual-meet mark and setting an Avery Aquatic Center record as she out-touched Stanford's Simone Manuel, who was second in 22.13.
 
In addition, Weitzeil swam a leg on Cal's winning 200 free relay that finished in 1:28.36. The time established a new Stanford pool record and crushed the Bears' previous dual-meet mark of 1:31.49 from the 2009 season.
 
Weitzeil also competed in two other races, placing second in the 100 free in 48.78 and handling the breaststroke leg on the Cal's runner-up 200 medley relay that was timed in 1:37.40.
 
Weitzeil was named Pac-12 Swimmer of the Month for December after she established an NCAA-leading 21.44 in the 50 free and swam the 100 free in 46.95, which ranks No. 2 in school history and currently sits as the second fastest in the country.
 
Cal completed its dual-meet season with a 9-1 record last week and next travels to Federal Way, Wash., for the Pac-12 Championships Feb. 21-24.
