Welcome to the Inaugural PIL City Slugfest
Thank you for being part of the first annual PIL City Slugfest. The City Slugfest was created to put a spotlight on inner
city high school baseball in Portland. Our hope is our PIL players and coaches have a great time; and that we not only
generate enthusiasm for baseball in our community, but that we bring community together for two days of games at
Porter Park at Hilken Community Stadium on the campus of Concordia University. Please enjoy the games and please
share your love of the game with others.
The City Slugfest is working hard to further bond the PIL as a league committed to togetherness, community and
making the game more inclusive. We do this all with the intentions of maintaining high levels of competitiveness and
keeping our national pastime connected to its communities.
Much thanks to Marshall Haskins, Bill Ranta and Jenna Wilson of the Portland Interscholastic League athletics for their
support. And special thanks to Rob Vance, head baseball coach at Concordia University, and the Concordia athletic
department for making this event possible. Also, we are very grateful for the support of the Hillsboro Hops, the Old
Timers & Active Baseball Association of Portland, NW Star Academy, Oregon City Sporting Goods, Eastbay, Wilson/
DeMarini, Louisville Slugger, Jugs, Big League Chew, The Barbers and Bi-Mart.
Best wishes to all the PIL baseball teams!

Want to play baseball in college?
There are affordable opportunities to continue your education and still play the game you love at the next level.
Ask your head coach about college opportunities.
Have you considered junior college? For many, it’s an inexpensive and a right-fit path to educational and athletic
development. There are many junior colleges in the area that have baseball programs. Feel free to call or email their
coaches. We have made all of the below coaches aware of the PIL City Slugfest. They would be happy to answer any
questions you may have about going to college and playing baseball.

How do you put yourself in a good position to
go to college?
Meet with a counselor regularly! Get advisement. Ask about academic scholarships/grants.
Ask about specific requirements to attend college.
• Attend all your classes
• Get homework submitted on time
• Regularly meet with your advisor and coach
• Apply to a school/s in a timely manner
• Graduate from High School
When colleges calculate your GPA for admissions purposes, they will often ignore the GPA on your transcript and
focus solely on your grades in core subject areas. Grades for physical education, music ensembles, and other non-core
courses are not as useful for predicting your level of college readiness as core courses.
In general, a typical high school core curriculum looks something like this:
• English: 4 years
• Foreign Language: 2 to 3 years
• Math: 3 years
• Science: 2 - 3 years
• Social Studies (including history): 2 to 3 years
While admissions standards vary greatly from one college to another, nearly all schools will be looking to see that
applicants have completed a standard core curriculum. As you choose classes in high school, these core courses should
always get top priority. Students without these classes may be automatically disqualified for admission.
Concordia University is a private school in NE Portland worth considering too. For more info, contact their athletic
department or admissions department. Concordia’s assistant baseball coach Braden Wells, a former star JC player and
outfielder for Oregon State, works in admissions. Feel free to contact him at 503-493-6267 or by email at
brwells@cu-portland.edu.
Also, there are opportunities to continue your baseball career and education at NCAA Division III Universities and
Colleges in the area. The coaching, academic curriculum and student-to-teacher ratio at DIII schools is extraordinary.
NCAA DIII schools do not offer athletic scholarships, but there are merit and need based scholarships available. If your
high school academic performance is exceptional, DIII might be a right-fit. We have listed the DIII schools in the area
that have baseball programs and some have JV baseball programs too. For more info, visit the below schools’ websites.
Lewis & Clark College in Portland, Oregon
www.lclark.edu
Willamette University in Salem, Oregon
www.willamette.edu
Pacific University in Forest Grove, Oregon
www.pacificu.edu
Linfield College in McMinnville, Oregon
www.linfield.edu
George Fox University in Newberg, Oregon
www.georgefox.edu
There are also academic/baseball opportunities at NAIA schools in Oregon at Corban University in Salem and at
Oregon Institute of Technology in Klamath Falls. To continue your baseball career at a DI or DII school, you will need to
be recruited, either as a scholarship student-athlete or invited walk-on.
