FIU will have two themed matches this weekend as Friday features as its Vice Night and Dig Pink initiative. Saturday will be the Panthers' Halloween match, where fans are encouraged to attend in costume. 

FIU fell in both of its matches last weekend to New Mexico State on the road. This will start a string of four-straight CUSA matches at home for the Panthers.

Kennesaw State split its matches with Sam Houston at home last weekend, falling in four sets on Friday and winning in four on Saturday. The Owls had previously been on four-match conference win streak, sweeping both Jax State and Liberty. 

Olivia Burrage sits fifth in the conference in hitting percentage at a .322 clip and has totaled 139 kills so far this season. She is also in the top-10 in CUSA in blocks per set with 0.91.
