Florida International University's women's soccer program has released its 2026 schedule, a 18‑match slate that blends non‑conference road trips with a full slate of Conference USA contests.
Season Opener and Early Matchups
The Panthers open the campaign on August 12 with a road test at Florida Atlantic before returning home for a marquee home‑opener against Florida State on August 16. A week later, FIU travels to face Duke on August 20, then hosts North Florida on August 23, and journeys to Florida Gulf Coast on August 27. The team wraps August with a home match against Howard on August 30.
Mid‑Season Road Tests
September brings a series of high‑profile opponents, starting with a home game against UCF on September 3, followed by a showdown with Miami on September 6. Additional road contests include trips to Stetson on September 10 and Jacksonville on September 13, before the Panthers head to New Mexico State in late September.
Conference Battles and Tournament
The regular season concludes on November 1 at home against Kennesaw State, after a series of conference road games against Jacksonville State, Liberty, Western Kentucky, Sam Houston and Missouri State. The Conference USA Women's Soccer Tournament is set for November 8‑13 in Newark, Delaware, where FIU will look to defend its title.
