Coach Carla Berube's Princeton club (15-1) jumped two spots to No. 20. Duke (21), West Virginia (22) and Washington (25) re-entered while Iowa State, Notre Dame and Illinois dropped out. The Huskies have been ranked in the Top 25 for a record 617 consecutive weeks, a streak that started with the first poll of the 1993-94 season.

UConn has had the most difficult schedule of the undefeated teams to this point, with the NET plopping them at the fifth-toughest schedule out of 363 teams. The Huskies dominated Notre Dame on Monday, and play Seton Hall again before January ends.

Both teams are 19-0 after keeping their undefeated streaks alive on Monday, but that’s not their only shared DNA.

Ten years separate the current UConn women’s basketball team from the 2015-16 NCAA champions, but the program’s standard unites generations.
