Sports Take: Baylor basketball programs poised to make it past first weekend

By Zach Babajanof-Rustrian | Sports Writer

This season, both Baylor basketball teams have been at the top of the league, never dropping out of the AP Top 25. That track record will translate to the NCAA Tournament, with both teams bolting deep into March Madness.

The Bears have had a dominant season, with the men ending their year 23-11 overall and placing third in the Big 12 and No. 14 in the AP Top 25. Meanwhile, the women ended 24-7 and finished fifth in the Big 12 and No. 19 in the AP Top 25.

Baylor basketball has been a must-watch this season ever since both programs started the year undefeated (women 14-0, men 9-0) and took part in close roller-coaster-like games.
