Gonzaga and Baylor maintained their grip on the top two spots in The Associated Press men’s basketball poll Monday.
The Bulldogs again racked up all but the two first-place votes that went to the Bears, while the Wildcats remained firmly behind the preseason top two despite not playing a game since Dec. 23. They had a pair of COVID-19 pauses broken up by a single day, including one involving coach Jay Wright, effectively sidelining them for a month.
“Everyone has dealt with this,” said Wright, whose team finally gets back on the court Tuesday night against Seton Hall.
