MIAMI (Jan. 27, 2016) -- The FIU Panthers women's basketball team heads back out on the road for a pair of Conference USA games, starting with a game at Charlotte Thursday night, with the opening tip scheduled for 7 p.m. from Dale F. Halton Arena. FIU is looking for its first league win in its eighth try and enters the contest with a 2-16 record. Charlotte is 10-8, 3-4 in conference so far in 2016.
The Panthers have played their seven conference games closer than the non-conference portion of the schedule. Their first three league games were decided by single digits, and FIU's last two league opponents failed to get to 70 points on the scoreboard.
