NC State, Texas A&M move up in women’s Top 25; Uconn at No. 1
Uconn remained the No. 1 team in The Associated Press women’s college basketball poll after blowing out its two opponents last week. The Huskies received 28 of 30 first-place votes on Monday from a media panel after holding St. John’s and Xavier to 32 points apiece in routs. North Carolina State returned to the No. 2 spot and Texas A&M climbed to third after South Carolina and Louisville – the previous second- and third-ranked teams – lost games. The Wolfpack had a two-week run at No. 2 last month. Stanford received the remaining first-place vote and moved up to No. 4 in the poll. Louisville dropped to No. 6 after losing at Florida State on Sunday. The Cardinals were followed by Baylor, Maryland, Arizona and UCLA.
