The Pepperdine University's men's basketball team is called the Waves and has been member of the WCC since 1955.
The Waves have won 12 WCC Championships and 3 WCC Tournaments.
The team has appeared 8 times in the NIT and 13 times in the NCAA Tournament; the last time they reached the Sweet 16 was in 1976.
In January 2008, head coach Vance Walberg resigned to his charge, so assistant coach Eric Bridgeland was elevated to interim coach and he was the one to finish the 2007-08 season. In his charge, the Waves ended with a season overall record of 11-21 and a conference record of 4-10.
Starting next season Tom Asbury, former Pepperdine 15 seasons head coach, will return to the Waves.
