Rankings from AP poll

The 2025–26 Seattle Redhawks men's basketball team represents Seattle University in the 2025–26 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Redhawks, led by fifth-year head coach Chris Victor, play their games on-campus at the Redhawk Center and off-campus at Climate Pledge Arena.

In 2025, Seattle rejoined the West Coast Conference, after its initial membership from 1971 to 1980.[1][2] They were previously a member of the Western Athletic Conference from 2012 to 2025.

Seattle's 12–3 record to start the 2025–26 season marked the Redhawks' best start since their 1963–64 season.[3] In 2026, Seattle's Will Heimbrodt was named WCC Defensive Player of the Year, after ranking No. 6 nationally in blocked shots (2.53 per game) and ranking No. 1 in conference games in blocked shots (2.4 per game).[4]

Previous season

The Redhawks finished the 2024–25 14–18, 8–8 in WAC play to finish in a tie fourth place. As a No. 5 seed in the WAC tournament, they defeated Abilene Christian in the quarterfinals before losing to Utah Valley in the semifinals. This was the Redhawks' last season as a member of the Western Athletic Conference, as they joined the WCC effective July 1, 2025.[5][6]
