West Virginia’s hard-fought victory over Kansas State turned heads in the Big 12, but it did little in the eyes of AP poll voters.
After making the semifinals of the Big 12 Women’s Basketball Championship this week, WVU is once again ranked at No. 16 in the nation. The Mountaineers moved to the spot in last week’s rankings from No. 18 and stays put ahead of NCAA Tournament play.
West Virginia’s seed for the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament has little to do with AP polls, but the top-16 ranking could be an indicator of Morgantown’s potential as a hosting site of the first two rounds.
The Mountaineers’ official seed and first round opponent will be announced Sunday, March 16 at 8 p.m. ET. The Selection Sunday show will play on ESPN.
