Fourth Annual Riverhounds Classic Kicks off Season
August 28, 2024 - United Soccer League Championship (USL)
Pittsburgh Riverhounds SC News Release
A yearly tradition took to the fields of Highmark Stadium, AHN Montour and other sites around the region, as the 2024-25 competitive year kicked off with the fourth annual Riverhounds Classic, played Aug. 23-25.
Nearly 100 teams from the Riverhounds Development Academy and clubs from around Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York and West Virginia competed during the weekend. Playing in age groups ranging from U9 to U14/15 - and battling some late-summer heat in Pittsburgh - the tournament was another successful start to the competitive year.
The Riverhounds wish to thank the sponsors of our RDA Tournament Series: Eat 'n Park, King Orthodontics, The Strong Museum of Play, Pittsburgh International Airport and Simax. Thanks also go to the food trucks and vendors who took part in this year's Riverhounds Classic: P's Bird Wagon, Benvenuti's Pizza, Sin Nombre, Kona Ice, Pittsburgh Poster Company and Crumbl Cookies.
Most of all, thanks go to the coaches, staff and volunteers who helped make this year's Riverhounds Classic a success.
On the field, 21 teams were crowned as champions of their respective divisions. Congratulations to each of them and to all the teams who took part last weekend. Below is a gallery of photos from the weekend's action and a list of the winners in each division.
