PITTSBURGH-- The University of Pittsburgh along with the Pitt Varsity Letter Club will host a Basketball Alumni Game in honor of long-time program supporter Bill Baierl on Sunday, Nov. 4 at the Petersen Events Center. Over 60 former players, managers and coaches are expected to attend the event. Former student-athlete and friend of Baierl, Charles Smith, along with Pitt head coach Jamie Dixon will co-host the event.

The Alumni Game will take place at 3:30 p.m., scheduled between the Pitt women's basketball exhibition game against the Ohio Legends (1 p.m.) and the men's basketball exhibition game vs. Indiana, Pa.

A former basketball letterman and 1951 Pitt honors graduate, Baierl was a kind, caring, generous, highly accomplished and dedicated long-time supporter of the Pitt athletics program. As a student-athlete at Pitt, Baierl was a basketball player under legendary Pitt coach H.C. "Doc" Carlson. Following graduation, Baierl always remained close to his alma mater and became one of Pitt's most highly respected and widely beloved graduates. Baierl was recognized as a Distinguished Alumni Fellow and was formally welcomed into the Cathedral of Learning Society, a recognition group for lifetime donors of more than $1 million to the University. He provided the lead gift for the construction of the Petersen Events Center's 43,000-square foot Baierl Student Recreation Center and Baierl Basketball Center which houses Pitt's lockerrooms, team meeting rooms, training and practice facilities. He passed away in April, 2007.
