Happy 2025 and the college dual meet schedule will be off to a hot start this week. Highlighting the week is the dual meet scheduled between Indiana and Florida.
It is a top ten matchup on both sides. The Indiana men were ranked #2 while the Florida men were ranked #4. It is important to note that the rankings came out before the announcement of Olympic bronze medalist Caspar Corbeau joining the Hoosiers this spring for his fifth year. The women’s side features #4 ranked Florida and #7 ranked Indiana.
The two have already had some big dual meets this season as Florida has gone up against Virginia while Indiana traveled to Texas this fall.
As many teams are on training trips, numerous matchups include teams in the north visiting schools in the south. Iowa will take on Miami-FL while Wisconsin is training in San Diego and will take on UCSD, UCLA, and UNLV this week.

I still think of swimming as having fast and slow parts to the season. It blows my mind to see VT throwing 41-100 free in a dual meet on January 3rd. The Hokies went 1:24.1 in the medley relay with a large lead over Queens. It is great to see fast swimming year round. I just wasn’t expecting to see dual meet 51.5-100 breaststroke today. VT looks to be firing on all cylinders!
Colorado School of MINDS – My buddy who went there would agree!
Fiare man!
The University of Texas is vastly overrated in the women’s power rankings.
