Expectations are appropriately high for the Syracuse basketball women’s squad.
The Syracuse basketball women’s team, after a somewhat disappointing 2019-20 term, is poised for a truly special upcoming campaign.
National pundits are high on the ‘Cuse, with the squad getting placed at No. 23 in the Associated Press pre-season top-25 poll, as well as ESPN’s pre-season top-25 ballot.
Personally, I think that the Orange should have landed a bit higher in both ratings, but the ‘Cuse did struggle a stanza ago, wrapping things up at 16-15, albeit with multiple successes versus nationally ranked foes throughout the last term.
