New York, NY (Sports Network) - Baylor is still the undisputed choice as the
No. 1 team in women's college basketball, according to the latest Associated
Press poll.
The Lady Bears received all 40 first-place votes and a total of 1,000 points
from a nationwide media panel. Baylor is the top-ranked team for the 10th
straight week and a unanimous selection for the third week in a row.
Notre Dame, Connecticut and Pac-12 tourney champ Stanford again kept their
spots from second through fourth, while Duke, after its ACC title on Sunday,
moved up one spot to fifth and swapped places with California.
Kentucky, Penn State, Texas A&M and Tennessee complete the top 10. Texas A&M
won the SEC crown this weekend and vaulted 10 spots from 19th.
The second 10 consists of UCLA, Maryland, North Carolina, Georgia, Delaware,
Louisville, South Carolina, Dayton, Colorado and Green Bay. Dayton dropped
seven spots from 11th after a loss to Saint Joseph's in the Atlantic 10
semifinals.
Purdue, Syracuse, Iowa State, Nebraska and Florida State are the last five
teams ranked. Purdue moved back into the poll after a week's absence following
its Big Ten title, while Iowa State also re-entered the rankings after falling
out last week.
Toledo and LSU dropped out this week.
