PORTLAND, Ore. -- Portland State has hired Santa Clara assistant Barret Peery as the Vikings' new coach.
Peery spent last season with the Broncos under first-year head coach Herb Sendek. The team reached the West Coast Conference tournament semifinals for the first time since 2010-11.
Peery was also on Sendek's staff at Arizona State from 2014-15. One of the stops during Peery's coaching career was at Portland State, where he was an assistant from 2002-03.
He is the 13th head coach in its 56-year history, and the sixth since the Vikings joined the Big Sky Conference in 1996-97.
