UConn No. 1, Stanford now No. 2 in coaches' poll

Unlike the Associated Press poll when Baylor remained No. 2 after its loss to No. 1 UConn, the Lady Bears dropped to third behind UConn and Stanford. The only other change in the top 10 is Kentucky moving up to ninth and Oklahoma slipping to 10th. Michigan State dropped out of the top 25 while Wisconsin-Green Bay moved in and checks in at No. 23.
