    NEW YORK -- Fresh off their first Final Four appearance, the Ducks are ranked No. 1 in The Associated Press' poll for the first time in school history.

    Oregon, led by sensational guard Sabrina Ionescu, received 25 of the 28 first-place votes from the national media panel to grab the top spot in the preseason rankings released Wednesday.

    "I think it validates our vision that we had going in here," coach Kelly Graves told the AP. "It validates the hard work from my staff that's been with me the whole journey. On this stage, we had a better opportunity to be in position we now are."

    Oregon State is ranked no. 7 in the AP poll. This is going to make for some outstanding Civil War games between the two teams.

    Ionescu is a really good basketball player, if you get a chance to watch her I'd recommend it.
