Women’s College Basketball Player Rankings – Class by Class Week 1

The first week (sort of) of college basketball has started and that means intrigue, excitement for all of the college players as well as the transfer college players who never got the opportunity to play last year. With that said, there were some stand out performances from certain players, and new names to keep track of. This will be the shortest week to track, and the rankings are only coming out on Tuesday due to some teams not having played a game yet until yesterday. Expect the rankings to come out every Monday.

The preseason rankings list can be seen here. If you have any questions, you can view the FAQ here.
