1939 Offseason
We have two teams swapping conferences this offseason! It is a big one though! Gonzaga is joining the Pac-12 and Oregon State is joining the West Coast Conference. Gonzaga will now be in the powerhouse that is the Pac-12 and Oregon State will try and compete at the lower level.
Here is our roster for the upcoming season!
