Congratulations to Coach Mike Rodriguez and the OLSH Chargers for winning the 2020 PBC “Outdoor” Fall League. For the safety of all, this year’s league was held outdoors using the courts at Kennedy Twp.’s Fairhaven Park and Robinson Twp.’s Clever Park.

OLSH won this year’s championship defeating Canon Mac in the finals and finished their fall season at 8-1.  Also making the semifinals were Central Catholic and Montour. This year’s results will be recorded in our Summer League championship records as we were unable to hold our annual summer leagues.

Thank you to the good folks of Robinson and Kennedy Twp. for prepping their venues so the kids could play safely. Equally big Thank you to the players, coaches and fans at North Catholic, Central Catholic, OLSH, Montour, Hampton, Canon McMillan, Pine Richland and Sto-Rox for their participation and co-operation in honoring all the rules and regulations required so everyone could be safe and enjoy the games.

Outdoor play was quite old school for players, coaches and fans alike. Lots of memories and great stories shared by many coaches and fans during the course of the league. This concept was well received by all and I think it is a concept that we will host again in 2021!

The Pittsburgh Basketball Club Women’s Hall of Fame committee is very proud to announce the following have been selected to the PBC Women’s Hall of Fame, Class of 2020.

We will honor these amazing, coaches, contributors, and student athletes at the Annual Women’s Hall of Fame Luncheon. Due to the ongoing worldwide Pandemic, we have rescheduled this year’s Banquet for November 6, 2021 at the banquet room at Rockefellers Grille. More information on tickets will be posted after the 1^st of the year.
