Provo • This week’s West Coast Conference men’s basketball news release accurately points out that WCC teams have collectively posted the most successful non-conference season in league history entering Thursday’s start to the WCC season.
Nine of the 10 teams have records of .500 or better, five programs already have 10 or more wins and the overall winning percentage of .671 (100-49) is a conference record. Never before has the conference won 100 non-conference games, the release boasts.
Of course, never before has the league played so many non-conference games, after the WCC dropped two league games from its schedule last spring to appease Gonzaga.
