Michigan State women rise to No. 16 in AP poll

The Michigan State women’s basketball team has gotten off to a solid start this season.

The Spartans are 2-0 with easy wins over Eastern Michigan and U of D Mercy. With that start MSU has risen to No. 16 in the latest AP poll. The Spartans were No. 17 in the preseason poll.

Oregon, Baylor, Stanford, UCONN and Texas A&M make up the current top five. Michigan State is the second-highest-ranked Big Ten team being No. 8 Maryland.

After a breezy start to the season the ladies will have a huge early test this week as they hit the road to take on No. 15 Notre Dame–last year’s national finalist–this Thursday.
