T25 BASKETBALL POLL…

UNDATED (AP) – Kentucky has strengthened its hold on the top spot in The Associated Press men’s college basketball poll this week. The 5-0 Wildcats got 62 of the 65 first-place votes after three wins, including a rout of then No. 5 Kansas.

The other three first-place votes went to Wisconsin, which checks in at No. 2 this week. Arizona, Duke and North Carolina round out the top five. Louisville, Texas, Virginia, Wichita State and Gonzaga are the rest of the top 10.
