Following a highly anticipated December matchup against UCLA, Gonzaga will return home to take on Campbell as part of its 2025-26 nonconference schedule.

The Fighting Camels are set to visit the McCarthey Athletic Center for a matchup with the Bulldogs on Dec. 17, according to Rocco Miller of bracketeer.org. Game time and broadcast information were not disclosed.

The Zags face the Bruins at Seattle's Climate Pledge Arena four days earlier on Dec. 13. Mark Few and company will then travel back to Spokane to take on a Campbell program in its first season under head coach John Andrzejek, a former Washington State assistant and recent national champion while under Todd Golden at Florida this past season.

Andrzejek spent the previous four seasons (2019-23) working for Kyle Smith in Pullman. Andrzejek's staff at Campbell has a few ties to the Cougars, including associate coach Eddie Hill, a former WSU guard who played for Kelvin Sampson in the 90s; assistant Anthony Lorenzo, formerly a coordinator of operations at WSU; as well as Joseph Yesufu, who played against the Zags this past season while at West Virginia. Yesefu was previously at WSU.
