Toledo Cracks Top 25 for First Time Since 2001-02 Campaign

The University of Toledo women's basketball team is back in the Top 25 for the first time in over a decade. The Rockets sit at No. 25 in this week's Associated Press media poll with 64 total points.

UT is in the midst of a 14-game win streak, tied for third-longest in school history, and wrapped up its second Mid-American Conference regular-season championship in the last three seasons on Sunday.

The last time the Rockets were in the Top 25 occurred during the week of Nov. 19-25, 2001 when they stood at No. 24 in the AP Poll after upsetting No. 4 Duke in their season opener.

Toledo has now been ranked in the Top 25 on five occasions in school history. They also appeared at No. 25 in the final regular-season poll during the 1998-99 season. Before that they were as high as No. 23 in the Feb. 8, 1994, and No. 25 in the Feb. 15, 1994 poll.
