#7 Men's Basketball Matches Best Rank Ever in AP Poll

OMAHA, Neb. -- The Creighton men's basketball team matched its best ranking in school history when the Bluejays were voted seventh in the Associated Poll on Monday, January 4th.

The Bluejays had previously been ranked seventh on Jan. 16, 2017, March 9, 2020 and March 16, 2020.

Creighton surged in the rankings following Saturday's 67-65 win at Providence on Saturday in a game that was nationally-televised on FOX, CU's fourth straight victory.

This is the 17th time that Creighton has earned a top-10 ranking in program history, with all but one of those weeks during Greg McDermott's tenure.
