The LSU women's basketball team has broken into the top 10 of the latest AP poll for the first time since the 2009-10 season, appearing at No. 8.

The Tigers are 23-4, 11-3 SEC, and in sole possession of second place in the league standings heading into the final week of play of the regular season.

LSU has been ranked in the AP poll for 12 straight weeks and is riding a six-game win streak with just two games remaining.

The Tigers will honor their strong senior class on Thursday when the Tigers host Alabama. On Sunday, LSU will finish its regular season at No. 16 Tennessee in a game that will have SEC Tournament seeding ramifications.
