On Friday, Sept. 9, the Riverhounds honored the career of coach, general manager and TV broadcaster Gene Klein with his induction as the sixth member of the Pittsburgh Riverhounds SC Hall of Fame.
The induction ceremony was held on the club level at Highmark Stadium, where friends, family and former players were able to reconnect and look back upon the litany of achievements in Klein’s remarkable career as a coach, educator and mentor. Among those in attendance were three of the Hall of Fame’s other members: Justin Evans, who served as emcee for the evening, David Flavius and John Kowalski.
Below are some of the images from Friday night’s celebration of the club’s history and one of its most influential figures.
