7 in the women's AP Top 25 released Monday, its lowest ranking in 14 years after losing its first game against an unranked team since 2012. 25 North Carolina (9-0) entered the poll this week for the first time since the preseason poll in 2015. They have been blowing past many of their opponents, although they haven't faced a Top 25 team yet. North Carolina edged Colorado and Oklahoma by one point to secure the final spot in the Top 25 this week. Stanford, which will also play at South Carolina three days later, has already played four games against ranked teams.
