Bluejays open the Maui Invitational today
OMAHA, Neb. -- The Creighton men's basketball team remained ranked 10th in this week's Associated Press Top 25 poll.
The Bluejays, who were ranked ninth in the preseason AP poll and 10th last week, have won all four games this season by double-figures.
Monday's announcement is the 20th time in program history that Creighton has been in the top-10 at any point, with all but one of those weeks happening under head coach Greg McDermott. Creighton's best ranking in program history is seventh, done four times (Jan. 16, 2017, March 10, 2020, March 18, 2020 and Jan. 7, 2021).
Including today's ranking, Creighton has now been ranked 116 times in program history, with 88 of those under the direction of McDermott. Creighton is 146-55 all-time as a ranked team, including a 112-43 mark under McDermott. Creighton has been ranked at least one week in nine of McDermott's 13 seasons on The Hilltop after doing it just five different seasons in program history before his 2010 arrival.
Creighton and No. 20 UConn are the only BIG EAST Conference schools in the poll. North Carolina is atop the poll, just ahead Houston, Kansas, Texas and Virginia.
Creighton has three games this week at the Maui Jim Maui Invitational, which starts at 1:30 p.m. Central today on ESPN2 against No. 21 Texas Tech and can also be heard on 1620 The Zone and 101.9 The Keg.
