Oregon State and Washington State Set to Join West Coast Conference for Non-Football Sports
Oregon State and Washington State are reportedly working on an affiliate agreement with the West Coast Conference (WCC) for their non-football sports, including men's and women's basketball. The agreement, which is expected to be finalized soon, would allow selected teams from both schools to compete in the WCC as affiliate members, with their games counting towards league standings and conference tournaments. The deal is expected to include a financial incentive package for the WCC. Discussions have focused on basketball and several Olympic sports, but baseball is not part of the proposed agreement. Oregon State and Washington State are currently seeking a new home for their other sports after a scheduling partnership with the Mountain West. They plan to continue as a two-team conference for the next two years before potentially rebuilding the Pac-12.
