Paul Zeise dropped the news on Wednesday that the local summer league Pro-Am games are (for now, anyway) no more. Citing a variety of reasons, the league won't be run this year and that means you won't be able to get early looks at Pitt players as they tune up for the season.
For years, the Pro-Am has provided a quandary of sorts simply because while it was great to see some players perform well, it often didn't translate into the regular season. Still, it was a nice way to get fans through a slow period in Pitt sports with nothing else really happening.
