Portland Pilots Men's Basketball Tickets

Portland Pilots men’s basketball has been part of the city’s sports fabric since 1922, representing the University of Portland in Portland, Oregon. Competing in the West Coast Conference, the Pilots have danced on college basketball’s biggest stage twice, in 1959 and after a 1996 WCC tournament title that sent them back to the NCAA Tournament. Alumni include Erik Spoelstra, who went from Pilots guard to championship-winning NBA head coach, and fan favorites who have filled the Chiles Center through generations.

Home games at the 4,852-seat Chiles Center on The Bluff bring a close-quarters roar, with purple-clad students, neighborhood families, and alumni turning every run into a surge.
