The Aztecs, led by 13th-year head coach Stacie Terry-Hutson, play their home games at Viejas Arena in San Diego, California as members of the Mountain West Conference.
This season will mark San Diego State's last season as members of the Mountain West Conference, as they will be joining the newly reformed Pac-12 Conference, effective July 1, 2026.[1]
