NEW YORK -- The UConn Huskies are still the team to beat, remaining No. 1 in The Associated Press women's basketball poll.
The Huskies (3-0) routed then-No. 20 California and No. 15 Maryland this week. UConn once again received all 32 votes from the national media panel on Monday. They topped the Terrapins without junior preseason All-American Katie Lou Samuelson who will be sidelined with a sprained left foot for a few weeks. UConn is headed out west to face No. 5 UCLA on Tuesday before playing Michigan State and Nevada.
Texas, South Carolina and Louisville are 2-3-4 in the poll.
