The
Portland Pilots... the best deal in town for true
basketball fans with great West Coast Conference action and regional
games with PSU, Oregon and Oregon State.
For several years I've been doing summaries of the games for KOHI radio in St. Helens for their morning
sports spots. It's been fun and keeps me in the game! To read a game summary or

The Pilots are picked by many to finish second in the league this year! I'm sure St. Mary's will have something to say about that. They look very strong in all catagories this year... and then there's Gonzaga; Picked to fniah first again thia year.
Portland State looks very tough again this year. They put away the Pilots hitting 15 three point baskets and getting it done down the streach. As last year's Big Sky champs they are favored to repeat again this year. Go see them!
