Cal women’s swim and dive is ready to start the 2021 season on a high note. The Bears are diving into competition this weekend with home pool advantage as they face off against Pac-12 rivals USC and UCLA.
The blue and gold have high expectations this year, a result of their No. 7 national rank and the fact that they were runners-up at the 2019 and 2020 Pac-12 championship meets.
The team has not had its typical share of meets in this unique season. In a normal year, the Bears compete in roughly 15 organized competitions, touring the country as they go head-to-head with some of the nation’s highest ranked teams.
