College Swimming Weekly Preview: October 16-22

October dual meets continue with Virginia hosting Florida as one of the biggest dual meets to watch this season. The Virginia women are coming off of their 4th National title in a row while the Florida women rose to 3rd last year. The Florida men finished 3rd at 2024 NCAAs as well while Virginia was 17th.

Florida will be making its dual meet debut after having its first two scheduled dual meets canceled this season with the most recent being due to Hurricane Milton. All four teams are currently ranked in SwimSwam’s top 25 with the Virginia women at #1 and the men at #11. Florida is ranked #4 on both the men’s and women’s sides.
