Also check out this link, in which ESPN.com ranks the 10-best women's basketball teams to not play in a BCS Conference (you know how we hate the M*d-M***r phrase at Xavier). You may need an insider account but below is the XU synopsis.
2. Xavier (20-4): Speaking of teams on a roll, Xavier has yet to lose in 2009 after it improved to 10-0 in the new calendar year with a win at Richmond over the weekend. The Musketeers are understandably known for the defensive symphonies they can orchestrate (see: Rhode Island's 29-point performance), but on the offensive end, they're actually shooting the ball better than they did a season ago. Chalk that up to Ta'Shia Phillips and her 63.5 percent shooting inside the arc, but it's also true from long range. The team had just two players hit as many as 20 3-pointers last season; this season, four players have already eclipsed that mark and three of them are shooting better than 36 percent from back there.
