What are the only 4 teams to finish in the top 10 of the final Coaches Poll for each of the last 5 years?

[newfrontier]

Not trying to cherry pick (well, maybe a little ) but can you name the 4 members of this club?
The first 3 are obvious......UCONN, Notre Dame, Baylor.....and the 4th????

To be clear, the 5 poll years in question are 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019.

Try answering before looking it up! The answer might surprise you! I will identify the correct answer later tonight.

ALERT....VERY SORRY FOLKS....MY BAD FOR TRUSTING WIKIPEDIA.

THEIR DATA FOR THE 2014-2015 SEASON FOR OREGON STATE IS WRONG!!!!!. Wiki shows Oregon State finished 10th that year, but they actually finished 13th.

THEIR MISTAKE IS IN THE LAST COLUMN ON THE RIGHT FOR THE FINAL COACHES POLL OF 2014-15.
2014–15 NCAA Division I women's basketball rankings - Wikipedia

Thus, there is no 4th team. Only Uconn, ND, and Baylor meet the criteria.

Closest correct answer is South Carolina and Oregon State which both meet the criteria 4 of 5 times.

Again, I apologize.

Without cheating my guess would be South Carolina/Maryland, although I'm not sure either finished in the top 10 this season. By process of elimination:

Stanford-didn't finish top 10 last year
Mississippi State-only finished top 10 last 3 years
Iowa-not them
Oregon-only last 2 years
Oregon State-I don't think they finished top 10 this year or in 2014 and 2015
Louisville-didn't finish top 10 in Asia's first 2 years
NC State-not them

My guess is South Carolina.

FYI. the poll years in question are 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019. 2014 does not factor in.

1st guess - Oregon St.
2nd guess- Maryland

My guess would have been Oregon State, but their twitter announced earlier this was their fourth year in a row, not fifth, so not them.

I’ll guess Maryland.

Hey, if you change it to past 4 years, I think it still works as only 4 teams.

Yes, you are right, the answers does work for the past 4 years...but I already announced my mistake and retraction in the original. NEXT TIME I PRESENT INFO I WILL DOUBLE AND TRIPLE CHECK OTHER SOURCES. HOW EMBARRASSING AND DUMB OF ME. FIGURES WIKI WOULD SCREW UP AND MAKE ME LOOK BAD.
