WCC Release
SAN BRUNO, Calif. – For the second-straight season, the West Coast Conference will play a 16-game conference schedule. On Thursday, the WCC announced that LMU will play home and away games next season with Gonzaga, Saint Mary's, BYU, Pepperdine, San Francisco, Pacific, and Portland. The Lions will also host USD, but will not travel to San Diego, and will play at Saint Clara but not host the Broncos.
The 16-game schedule is the result of changes adopted by the WCC Presidents' Council going into the 2018-19 season as part of the Conference's Men's Basketball Enhancement Plan.
These matchups designate the 16-game home and away opponents for the upcoming season based on a Conference formula including multi-year team RPI, last year's West Coast Conference tournament seedings, and a spring survey of the league's 10 head coaches.
The 2020 West Coast Conference Basketball Championships will take place
March 5-10 at Orleans Arena in Las Vegas.
The regular-season WCC matchups for the 2019-20 season are listed below. Conference play will begin on Thursday, January 2, 2020. Specific dates and times for each game will be announced later this summer after the conference's league schedule is finalized.
