2015 WAC women's basketball tournament

The 2015 WAC women's basketball tournament was held on March 11–14, 2015, at the Orleans Arena in Paradise, Nevada. This was the fourth consecutive year the WAC Tournament took place in Vegas.

Format

Grand Canyon did not compete in the 2015 women's basketball tournament. As a D2 to D1 transitioning school, they were ineligible to compete in the NCAA tournament until the 2018 season, so they could not win the conference tournament since the winner received an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. However Grand Canyon was eligible to win the regular season title and is eligible to compete in the WNIT or WBI should they be invited. <br> Since Idaho left the WAC at the start of the year, 7 teams competed in the 2015 tournament in a traditional single-elimination style tournament. 1 had a bye in the first round 8, 2 played 7, 3 played 6, and 4 played 5 on Wednesday, March 11. The winners met in the semifinals on Friday, March 13. The championship was held on Saturday, March 14.
