Nebraska women's basketball ranked in AP Top 25

Nebraska women's basketball has made its mark in the latest Associated Press Top 25 ranking. The Huskers secured the No. 25 spot, displacing North Carolina State in the final position of the poll. The Huskers have had a successful start to the season, going 2-0 with wins against San Jose State and Western Illinois. Freshman Britt Prince, who is a preseason player of the year candidate, is making an impact with averages of 21.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.5 assists, and 2.5 steals in the two games.

The Huskers' return to the rankings after seven consecutive weeks in the top 25 during the 2025-26 season is notable. Currently, Nebraska is one of ten teams from the Big Ten Conference in the top 25. The Huskers are set to resume their campaign on Tuesday when they host North Carolina A&T at 7 p.m. CT on B1G+.
