Sophomore swimmer PJ Gabayeron may hang up his Speedo and goggles knowing he may have solidified his place as the best swimmer in the history of Cerritos College.

Gabayeron won two more state championships at the California Community College Athletic Association Men’s Swimming Championships at East Los Angeles College on April 28-30.

Prior to winning this past weekend, Gabayeron said, “I don’t focus too much on winning or losing. I just believe in myself.” He won the 100-yard breaststroke on Friday with a time of 55.68 and followed it up with a win in the 200-yard breaststroke with a time of 2:00.24, shattering a 23-year-old state record.

Gabayeron finishes his career with five individual state championships (a school record), eight South Coast Conference Championships, was named an All-American six times as an individual and three others as part of a relay team. Along with that, he has set four individual school records and two relay records and was named Swimmer of the Meet at last year’s state championships and CCCAA Male Athlete of the Month for May 2010.
