Panthers finish season third in Sun Belt
It should come as no surprise that the final regular-season game of FIU was cancelled because of rain. In a twisted way, it is a metaphor for a season where all expectations were washed away from day one.

FIU was eased into conference play against a slumping Owls club with 2-0 victory against FAU on March 21. The Panthers played a FAU squad that had lost nine of their last 13 games. The team received a stellar performance from ace Mariah Dawson. Dawson gave her bullpen a rest, pitching a complete game allowing just two hits to go with a season-high 12 strikeouts.
