The easiest way to get yourself ranked in the Associated Press top 25 poll is to just win your games. Marquette women’s basketball has been doing exactly that this season, starting off the year 6-0 after beating Boston College and Arkansas over the weekend in the Fort Myers Tip-Off.
And now, the voters have rewarded them, installing the Golden Eagles as the #23 team in the country in Monday’s brand new AP poll!
Marquette snagged 76 points in the polling this week, which is less than half as many as #22 Louisville at 155 points and just barely more than #24 North Carolina with 74 points.
