The Notre Dame women’s basketball team is off to a hot start. The Fighting Irish are 2-0 so far, including an overwhelming 123-40 victory over Stonehill on Friday.
After showing up at No. 13 in the Associated Press preseason poll, Notre Dame remained in that position in the first week of the AP regular season rankings.
South Carolina, Michigan, USC, Connecticut and Duke rounded out the top-five.
The Irish will host Detroit Mercy today at 7 p.m. The team will then travel West Virginia on Saturday to face DePaul in the SoFi Shamrock Classic.
Michigan rises to No. 2 in the AP Top 25 women’s basketball poll — its highest ranking ever — after beating UConn. South Carolina holds the top spot. See where your team landed. https://t.co/YxHmBQgU80
