Florida International made school history by winning it\u2019s very first Conference USA title last weekend at the C-USA Championships. The conference is comprised of seven teams: Florida Atlantic, Florida International, Marshall, North Texas, Old Dominion, Rice, and Western Kentucky. <\/p>\n

Not only was the win for the Panthers the team\u2019s first title, but it was also the school\u2019s first conference title. <\/p>\n

Dethroning Rice, who has won the meet three out of the last four years, the Panthers have proven themselves a force to be reckoned with. Head coach Randy Horner<\/strong> said this year\u2019s team differs from past teams.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis year we were a much more complete team with depth. \u00a0We have always had some top swimmers, but this is the first time we have had every swimmer and diver contribute at a significant level,\u201d said Coach Horner. <\/p>\n

After the first day of competition, FIU was in third place behind Western Kentucky and Rice, who ended the meet third and second respectively. However, Coach Horner said there was a pivotal moment in the meet the next day. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe 50 Free was a turning point in prelims on day two. \u00a0That race can go many different ways depending on a start and finish,” Horner said. “We got three in finals and that was huge since it is one of Rice’s strength events.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 50 freestyle was a tight win, with .01 separating first and second place. Freshman Letizia Bertelli<\/strong> prevailed in a time of 22.94 (Bertelli swam a faster prelims time of 22.90). Sophomore Jenny Deist<\/strong> claimed third with a time 23.03. <\/p>\n

Another considerable contribution to the Panthers\u2019 success was the sweep of the 200 IM. Senior Johanna Gustafsdottir<\/strong> won the event by over two seconds, in a meet record-setting time of 1:57.33. The time was also an NCAA B-cut. Following Gustafsottir was freshman teammate Silvia Scalia<\/strong> (1:59.58) and junior Karin Tomeckova<\/strong> (1:59.58).<\/p>\n

The last event of the meet was a fight between the three big powers of Conference USA. The race was neck and neck between FIU, Rice, and Western Kentucky. The Panthers\u2019 anchor leg, Gustafsdottir (CUSA\u2019s Swimmer of the Meet) finished in a brisk 48.48. The win for the relay sealed their championship. <\/p>\n

Coach Horner said the team\u2019s conference win will, hopefully, live on in seasons to come. <\/p>\n

\u201cThere are no guarantees in sports and each year will be an new challenge. \u00a0We have a very young team though, so we are optimistic of our chances next year,\u201d said Horner.<\/p>\n
