The West Coast Conference was notified today by Brigham Young University that the institution will be withdrawing as a member of the Conference following the conclusion of the 2022-23 season.

“We understand BYU’s decision and wish everyone connected with the institution the very best moving forward,” WCC Commissioner Gloria Nevarez said. “BYU has been transparent in exploring opportunities to find league affiliation for its football program and has been presented with an opportunity that fits its needs. We will continue to value them as a member of the West Coast Conference through the 2022-23 academic year. The WCC has enjoyed unprecedented success in recent years with multiple NCAA Championships, and BYU has been a great part of those achievements. The success of the WCC’s student-athletes and ability to win national titles puts the Conference in a very strong position across the collegiate athletics landscape. The WCC continues to attract interest in membership and will be deliberate and thorough in evaluating our best path forward to position the Conference for continued success.”
