PITTSBURGH — The 2018-19 Pitt men’s and women’s basketball teams came together on Friday for Courtisde at the Cathedral, Pitt’s annual tip-off event that’s held on a temporary court installed on Bigelow Boulevard in the shadow of the Cathedral of Learning.
It was the first chance for Pitt fans to check out the new-look teams under first-year head coaches Jeff Capel and Lance White.
