SAN MATEO, Calif. – The West Coast Conference has announced the matchups for its 16-game conference schedule for each of its 10 men's basketball programs for the 2022-23 season. This is the fifth season the WCC will play a 16-game schedule after changes adopted by the WCC Presidents' Council as part of the Conference's Men's Basketball Enhancement Plan prior to the start of the 2018-19 season.
These schedule initiatives demonstrate the league-wide commitment by West Coast Conference Presidents and Athletics Directors to adopt an innovative approach to advance men's basketball on the national stage as a multiple NCAA bid Conference. Since the 2018-19 season, the WCC has garnered multiple bids in the NCAA Tournament each season with two in 2018-19 and 2020-21 and three in 2021-22. The three bids were tied for the most in conference history (2012, 2008). The NCAA Tournament was not held in 2019-20 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The matchups detailed below designate the 16-game home and away opponents for the upcoming season based on a Conference formula including the team NET rankings from recent seasons, last year's University Credit Union WCC Men's Basketball Tournament seedings, and a spring survey of the league's 10 head coaches.
The regular-season WCC matchups for the 2022-23 season are listed below. Specific dates for each contest will be announced later this summer after the conference schedule is finalized.
