EUGENE, Ore. – The Oregon women's basketball team will open its season in the top 25 of the Associated Press rankings for the sixth consecutive year after coming in at No. 20 in the preseason poll released on Tuesday.
The Ducks are one of just seven programs in the country to be ranked in each of the last six AP preseason polls, joined by Baylor, Louisville, Maryland, South Carolina, Stanford and UConn. It is the 86th time Oregon has been ranked in the AP poll under ninth-year head coach Kelly Graves.
