The WCC was a bit more creative than the Pac 12 in determining standings with unbalanced schedules. 4-6 St Mary's ended up being seeded higher than 7-5 LMU for the conference tournament.
"The WCC partnered with Ken Pomeroy to develop a model that uses a proprietary algorithm that best reflects conference games completed and yields an adjusted conference winning percentage for each men’s and women’s basketball team. The adjusted conference winning percentage accounts for the strength of the opponent and the location (home/away) of the game played. The offensive and defensive efficiency metric is not utilized in the algorithm to determine a team’s adjusted conference winning percentage."
