For the 2000 season, Portland State played all of their home games at Hillsboro Stadium in neighboring Hillsboro, Oregon. The games were played there instead of Civic Stadium as their Portland home was undergoing major renovations to accommodate the Triple-A Portland Beavers baseball team for their 2001 season.[1]
