The Texas A&M women?â„¢s basketball team (9-1) returned to the top 10 in both the Associated Press and USA TODAY/ESPN Coaches Top 25 Polls. The Aggie women moved up in the rankings after claiming a 62-60 victory over No. 14 and previously unbeaten Auburn on Dec. 15.
A&M climbed two spots to No. 10 in the latest AP Poll released on Monday and one spot to No. 10 in the Coaches Poll released on Tuesday. It marked the first time for the Aggies to be ranked among the top 10 in the AP Poll this season, while A&M was previously ranked No. 10 in the Coaches Poll during week 2.
A&M?â„¢s No. 10 ranking tied the program?â„¢s highest national ranking in school history as the Aggies were ranked No. 10 in both national polls during the regular season on Nov. 27, 2006. They have now appeared a program-best 32-straight weeks in the AP Poll and 27-straight weeks in the Coaches Poll since the 2005-06 season. A&M takes on its second consecutive top 25 opponent of the season at No. 22 George Washington (8-3) on Thursday night in Washington, D.C.
