\"LenkaWhile the Baylor basketball<\/a> teams<\/a> are getting most of the attention this week as they roll into the NCAA tournament, they are just two of the seven Baylor winter\/spring sports currently ranked among the top 25 in the nation.

This is the first time the Lady Bears have ever been ranked No. 1<\/a>, but it doesn’t come as a complete surprise. The women began the year at No. 5 in the nation, the program’s fourth top-10 preseason ranking in five years, and are coming off a stretch in which they beat No. 13 Southern Cal<\/a> and No. 2 UCLA<\/a> on the road, then defeated No. 4 North Carolina<\/a> in Waco — all in the span of five days.<\/p>\n

Four Lady Bears are ranked among the top 100 singles players in the nation, led by senior Lenka Broosova, who is No. 5 in this week’s rankings. Baylor also has one ranked doubles team, Broosova and senior Csilla Borsanyi, who rank eighth.<\/p>\n
