USC's Impressive Rise

USC's ascent can be attributed to a tough win against NC State. Freshman Jazzy Davidson is making waves, but the team's success isn't solely due to one player.

South Carolina and Texas Shine

South Carolina is holding steady at No. 2, even amidst some off-court issues. They have a significant game coming up against USC. Texas is at No. 3 after scoring an impressive 100 points in a game. UCLA and LSU round out the top 5. LSU's MiLaysia Fulwiley had a standout performance with 22 points and five 3-pointers.

Notre Dame's Potential

Notre Dame is also making noise, ranked at No. 16. Hannah Hidalgo is a standout player, setting a record with 44 points and 16 steals in a single game. This performance highlights Notre Dame's potential, despite having a young team.
