A fast digitization system for a high-efficiency scintillating tile hodoscope has been developed for the muon g-2 experiment. Light pulses from the tiles are amplified by a Philips 64-channel photomultiplier tube. Electrical signals are both discriminated and stored locally in custom NIM modules as four 16-bit words. Digital information is then pumped via shielded 'phone' cables to a remote custom VME module which serves as a data buffer and computer interface. Testbeam performance of PSD and digitization system is discussed.
