The No. 1 UPEI Panthers (8-0) have made history by being ranked at the top of the national list in women’s basketball.

Ellsworth has been on fire from deep, averaging 52.6 percent from three-point land.

Ellsworth led the Panthers to a pair of victories this past weekend against the Acadia Axewomen (4-3) and Saint Mary’s Huskies (6-2).
