Stott Center is a 1,500-seat multi-purpose arena located on the Portland State University campus in Portland, Oregon, in the United States.[1] The facility houses the Portland State Vikings Athletics Department as well as physical education classes. It features locker rooms, racquet courts (tennis, squash and racquetball), eighth-mile track, weight training, wrestling room, small gym, pool and arena. It opened in 1966.

The facility is named after alumnus and booster Peter Stott, whose $1 million challenge grant enabled a renovation of the basketball court.
