4 Pac-12 Women’s Basketball // November 23, 2020 CONFERENCE NOTEBOOK PRESEASON RANKINGS For the fifth-straight year and just the sixth time ever, five Pac-12 teams are ranked in the preseason Associated Press poll with four of those teams ranking in the top 10. For the fourth time in five years, five Pac-12 teams are ranked in the USA Today/WBCA Coaches Poll with Stanford leading the way at No. 2. The four top-10 teams in both polls are the most of any conference in the country. STANFORD’s No. 2 ranking in the AP is the highest for the Cardinal to start the year since 2009. ARIZONA’s No. 7 ranking is the highest the Wildcats have been ranked in the AP preseason poll in program history, and UCLA comes in at No. 9, which marks the 16th-straight week the Bruins have been ranked in the top ten. The Ducks are ranked No. 10 in the AP preseason poll and have now been ranked in the AP top-25 for 60 straight polls, the eighth-longest active streak in the nation, including 59 consecutive top-10 rankings, and OREGON STATE comes in at No. 18.

NCAA ACTIVE LEADERS ARIZONA’s Aari McDonald is currently second on the NCAA’s active career scoring list with 1,759 points, while UCLA’s Michaela Onyenwere is 14th (1,449) and Stanford’s Kiana Williams is 18th (1,372). Onyenwere also ranks T-16th in active career rebounds with 719. Krystal Leger-Walker, who transferred to WASHINGTON STATE after three seasons at Northern Colorado and will see her first action for the Cougars this upcoming season, currently ranks T-11th in career assists with 378 while Williams ranks T-16th with 363 assists. OREGON’s Erin Boley is seventh among active players in three-pointers made with 233 (47 came during her freshman year at Notre Dame), and Williams is eighth with 229 threes.

Creme has STANFORD earning the No. 1 seed, ARIZONA tabbed as a No. 2 seed, and OREGON and UCLA each at No. 3. OREGON STATE is selected as a No. 5 seed (College Park), ARIZONA STATE as a No. 7 seed (Sarkville), and USC at No. 9 (Storrs). If it holds, the No. 1 seed would be the first for the Conference since 2013, and the seven selections would be the tied for the most ever in league history (The Pac-12 had seven teams in the 1995, 1997, 1998, 2006 and 2017 tournaments).

FRESH FACES OREGON boasts the top 2020 recruiting class in the country, as ranked by ESPNW, with Angela Dugalic, Te-Hina Paopao, Sydney Parrish, Maddie Scherr and Kylee Watson who are all five five-star recruits. STANFORD has the sixth-ranked recruiting class, headlined by five-star recruits Cameron Brink and Jana Van Gytenbeek, and CALIFORNIA put together the seventh-ranked class with four ESPN Top 100 commits with Dalayah Daniels, Ugonne Onyiah, Fatou Samb and Sela Heide.
