The Pittsburgh Basketball Club wishes to extend its condolences to the family of PBC Hall of Fame member Jack Burik, Sr., who passed away July 17, 2019.

Coach Burik was a highly successful coach at Bishop Canevin High School and at St. Malachy Catholic. Beyond the many victories achieved on the sideline were the hundreds of lives he touched as an educator. Coach was beloved by all and will be missed by the many people whose lives were better having his wisdom and guidance.

Coach Burik was inducted into the PBC Hall of Fame in 2014 and is one of only 3 families where both father and son were inducted into the PBC Hall of Fame.
