Abbey Weitzeil, Michael Jenson Wed in Cal Celebration<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The big year of 2024<\/a> continued for Abbey Weitzeil<\/strong> and Michael Jensen,<\/strong> who were married on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Weitzeil is coming off of making her third Olympic team and was a relay medalist for Team USA.<\/p>\n

She is a three-time Olympian and six-time Olympic medalist, most recently part of the gold-medal mixed medley relay. She was a multi-NCAA champion at Cal and held the NCAA record in the 50 free.<\/p>\n

Jensen also was an NCAA champion at Cal, in the 200 free relay in 2019. He was a 14-time All-American for the Golden Bears and part of a family of swimmers at Cal.<\/p>\n

The two met as Cal teammates and were engaged in 2022. There were plenty of Cal Golden Bears in attendance from both the men’s and women’s teams celebrating together.<\/p>\n

Abbey Weitzeil said that the wedding planning and Olympic training were good breaks from each other and allowed her to focus on the other when needed.<\/p>\n

After she missed the team in an individual sprint, she rallied to make her third Olympic team as a relay swimmer.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think this year is huge for me in such amazing ways, and I think planning a wedding has been kind of like a getaway for me. I love that kind of stuff. I love organizing and all of that,\u201d Abbey Weitzeil said after making the Olympic team. \u201cIt\u2019s been something fun for me to do, and I\u2019ve had a long time to do it so no stress on that. Preparing for this meet has been throwing everything I have into the pool every day. My 100 isn\u2019t something I was expecting for, wanting, so it did take me a day to reset, take a breath, appreciate what I have done, get myself on the team again and move on to my next race.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
