The USF women’s basketball team has checked in No. 16 in both the AP and Coaches Polls released this week.
Head coach Jose Fernandez has his team humming along quite nicely early in the season. The Bulls (7-1) have made light work of a torturous non-conference schedule as they have won four games by at least 15 points, highlighted by 37-point victory over Washington State on Black Friday.
Junior guard Kitija Laksa has paced the Bulls with 23.5 PPG, while shooting 45% from three. She has missed just one (1) free throw this year going 23-of-24 from the charity stripe.
