FIU is scheduled to compete in four regular-season meets this semester before making a run at their seventh-straight league title at the Conference USA Championships in Atlanta on Feb. 25-27. The Panthers will host one meet at the Biscayne Bay Aquatic Center this semester, with FIU also serving as the home squad for two diving competitions in Coral Springs, Florida.

"This has been far from a normal season," said Head Coach Randy Horner. "But we are excited to have a string of meets to finish the year and get ready for the conference championship in late February, and ultimately the NCAA Championship."
 
The Panthers will make the short-trip to Coral Gables this Friday, Jan. 22, to battle the Miami Hurricanes at 3 p.m. ET, in a meet that was rescheduled after initially being postponed back on Nov. 9 due to inclement weather. FIU faces a quick turnaround the following day when the Panthers travel to Fort Myers, Florida to face the FGCU Eagles on Saturday, Jan. 23, at 3:30 p.m. ET.
 
FIU wraps up the month of January with a home showdown against C-USA rival FAU, beginning with a divers-only competition in Coral Springs, Florida on Wednesday, Jan. 27, at 10:35 a.m. ET. The swimmers will be unleashed the ensuing weekend on Saturday, Jan. 30, at 11 a.m. ET, when the Panthers welcome the Owls to the Biscayne Bay Aquatics Center.
 
The Blue & Gold caps the regular season with a showcase of the Panther divers, when FIU hosts the South Florida Diving Invite against FGCU, FAU, and Miami on Monday, Feb. 8. It will mark the second time this season that FIU will square off against FGCU and FAU, and the third time it sees Miami.

The quest for a seventh-straight conference title will finally come to a head when the Panthers travel to Atlanta for the C-USA Championships beginning Thursday, Feb. 25. League championships will take place at the McAuley Aquatic Center Pool on Georgia Tech's campus.

FIU will look to continue its postseason run beginning with the NCAA Zone Diving Championships on Monday, Mar. 8-10, in Greensboro, North Carolina. The competition will serve as the qualifying event for the NCAA Championships, which will also be staged in Greensboro and begin on Wednesday, Mar. 17-20.

FIU does not have plans to compete at CSCAA National Invitational Championship this season.
