Rankings from NSCAA

The 2013 Western Athletic Conference men's soccer season is the eighth season of men's varsity soccer in the conference. The conference first sponsored the sport in 1996, but after eight schools split from the WAC in 1999 to form the Mountain West Conference (MW), the WAC only played the 1999 season before disbanding its men's soccer league.[1]
