Fairfield University Women's Basketball Stags Receive Votes in AP's Top 25 Poll

Fairfield, CT - On the heels of their 12-1 start to the 2023-24 season, the Fairfield Women’s Basketball program has received a pair of votes in the latest Associated Press Top 25 Poll. For the first time in program history, the Stags received votes on the national ledger, which was released on Monday, Jan. 8. They are only the seventh MAAC team to be recognized by the AP.


The Stags entered the national spotlight riding a 10-game winning streak dating back to its Nov. 20, 2023 upset of Big Ten foe Rutgers. The run also includes wins over St. John’s, Fordham and local rival Sacred Heart. Fairfield’s only setback this season is a three-point loss at Vanderbilt, which is currently the first team outside the AP Top 25 with a record of 15-1.


Fairfield is also ranked #12 in this week’s College Insider Mid Major Top 25 as one of just two teams to receive a first-place vote.


The Stags will take the court at Fairfield University's Leo D. Mahoney Arena and welcome Siena on Saturday, Jan. 13 at 2 p.m.
