(Champaign–jc) –For the third-straight season under head coach Shauna Green, Fighting Illini women's basketball is ranked in the Associated Press Top-25 Poll, coming in at No. 23 in the Week 1 listing. Illinois opened the 2024-25 campaign with an 83-74 win over No. 19 Florida State followed by a 65-53 victory against Marquette. Illinois has been ranked in six combined AP polls under Green. In 2022-23, the Illini appeared in four Top-25 polls, followed by the preseason rankings in 2023-24, and most recently the Week 1 poll in 2024-25. The Illini have now appeared in 69 AP polls all-time across 11 different seasons.
