Another milestone for the Alabama women’s basketball program under Kristy Curry is in the books. On Monday, the Crimson Tide was revealed as the 24th-ranked team in the preseason AP Poll. It’s the first such ranking for the team since before the turn of the century.
Curry’s leadership has brought with it three NCAA Tournament berths in four seasons, including two in a row, after the program had not made any appearances in the tournament since 1999. Coincidentally, that was the same season as the one in which Alabama was last ranked in the preseason poll.
“There is a lot of well-deserved preseason excitement around our program,” said Curry, who is entering her 12th season coaching at Alabama, in a press release. “We all understand it’s about the finish and are just focused on getting better each day. This is a talented, special group who have helped us elevate the program in so many ways.”
