BOCA RATON, Fla. – The Florida Atlantic University men's and women's swimming and diving team will kick off the 2019-20 season in less than two weeks, hitting the pool on Sept. 28 for the first home meet of the season.
Â
FAU will host a myriad of competitors with seven home meets, including the annual FAU Invitational on Dec. 20 at 11 a.m., which will bring in 11 teams. The postseason will commence in mid-February and could last until the last week of March with the NCAA Championships.
Â
"The swimmers and divers have embraced the fast incoming class with open arms, and after a great season last year, our team is looking forward to training hard and improving on those results," said head coach Lara Preacco. "This is an exciting time to be a part of the FAU Athletics family, and our swimmers and divers can feel it every day. They are pushing each other in and out of the pool and are showing great potential to continue to improve as we have in the last few years."
Â
The Owls will embark on the season at home against Florida on Saturday, Sept. 28 at 10 a.m. at FAU Aquatic Center. Also in the fall, FAU will host the Alumni & Family Meet (Oct. 19 at 11 a.m.), Indian River State (Oct. 25 at 3 p.m.) and Princeton (November 1 at 3:30 p.m.).
Â
FAU will participate in the TYR Fall Classic hosted by FIU for the third consecutive year on Oct. 4-5. The Owls will also make the trip to Fairfax, Virginia for the Patriot Invitational from Nov. 21-23 to wrap up the fall season.
Â
The winter schedule is highlighted by home meets against SUNY Geneseo (Jan. 11) and Florida Gulf Coast (Jan. 17) and away competitions at Florida State (Jan. 25) and FIU (Feb. 1). Prior to postseason, the divers will have one last shot at the All-Star Meet in Orlando, Florida from February 7-9.
Â
After finishing as the runner-up last season, the men will look to improve on their historical finish at the Coastal Collegiate Sports Association Swimming & Diving Championships, which will be held from February 19-22. The meet will be hosted at the Allan Jones Aquatic Center in Knoxville, Tennessee.
Â
The women's team will compete the following weekend at the Conference USA Championships from February 26-29. The long weekend of racing will be held in Atlanta at Georgia Tech.
Â
Postseason will continue with the Diving Zone B Championships (March 11 -13), Women's NCAA Championships in Athens, Georgia (March 18-21) and Men's NCAA Championships in Indianapolis (March 25-28).
