About us
2023 Players' Shield Winners 🛡️ Pittsburgh Riverhounds SC was founded on March 11, 1998, by Belle Vernon, Pennsylvania native Paul Heasley. The team’s emergence ended the sport’s 12-year hiatus in the city at the professional level after the Pittsburgh Spirit of the Major Indoor Soccer League folded in 1986. Heasley’s inspiration for the team formed when his son, Lucas, began seriously playing soccer in the late 1990s. As there were no local role models for Lucas to look up to, Heasley’s aim was to create a club embodying the character of Pittsburgh and western Pennsylvania that could fuel the ambitions of youngsters in the region and give them a pathway to become professional soccer players. This vision was realized during the 1999 USL draft when Peters Township native Justin Evans was selected as the Riverhounds’ first player. The team compiled a 16-12 record in its inaugural regular season, playing its home matches at Bethel Park High School. In 2004, Heasley sold the Riverhounds. The team subsequently underwent a number of venue and ownership changes before landing at Highmark Stadium for the 2013 season. Current owner Tuffy Shallenberger took control of the Riverhounds and Highmark Stadium in 2013. The Riverhounds also operate a thriving youth academy with locations in Pittsburgh and Connellsville.

It’s wild to think that we’ve only got two more home games left in the 2024 regular season. With the playoffs on the line, each match is more important than the last. Next week, we start planning for the 2025 season - if you work in sports, then you understand why it starts so early. And, we get to do this for two teams! When we take this time to plan, it’s crucial for us to understand our successes and opportunities. We gather data from fans and partners all season long, and we all have our own unique perspectives on how to improve the organization and its processes. Every voice is heard. All ideas are considered. Everything is documented. Then, we go to work. The coolest part of all is when things take shape… when those “pie in the sky” ideas we discussed during a team retreat come to life. A great experience comes from great preparation. With the incredibly talented people we have on staff, I’m really excited to see what’s next! — United Soccer League (USL) Pittsburgh Riverhounds SC Pittsburgh Riveters SC #sportsmarketing
