From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A single human poll represents the 1980–81 AIAW Division I women's basketball rankings , the AP Poll , in addition to various publications' preseason polls. The AP poll was initially a poll of coaches conducted via telephone, where coaches identified top teams and a list of the Top 20 team was produced. The contributors continued to be coaches until 1994, when the AP took over administration of the poll from Mel Greenberg , and switched to a panel of writers.[1] The AP poll is currently a poll of sportswriters. The AP conducts polls weekly through the end of the regular season and conference play.
