  • 2019 Banquet Program
    Welcome to We at the Georgetown Centre, are very happy to be the site of the 2019 Mid Mon Valley All Sports Hall Fame banquet. Being a 1963 graduate of Thomas Jefferson High School, I have had many memo- ries of valley sports in my high school and college memories. We, at the Georgetown Centre, family owned and operated since 1990, have become the premier banquet facility in this area. We operated the Yorkshire Inn Restaurant for 23 years beginning in 1970. Through the years we have established many lasting relationships whether it be by wedding, sports banquets, showers or graduations. The valley has been an important source of business for the Yorkshire Inn and the Georgetown Centre for many years. We hope that this inaugural banquet of the Mid Mon Valley sports affair becomes a new reoccurring relationship with the Georgetown Centre. We are proud to have the yearly affair here with us. Thank you for sharing the experience with us at the Georgetown Centre. Thank you, Leslie George, Jr. Owner Hall of Fame Watch 2019 Welcome to the 26th annual Mid Mon Valley All Sports Hall of Fame Banquet. This is our first experience at The Georgetown Centre and we appreciate the graciousness of host Les George. Our student honorees, outstanding senior scholar-athletes chosen by their respective Mon Valley high schools, are to be commended on a job well done! It is our privilege to honor you in tonight’s ceremony alongside the athletes who came before you. Most importantly, you represent the future for our communities, commonwealth and nation.

  • Four of the Top Players in School History Are Depicted Here Including Charles Smith, Don Hennon, Billy Knight and Jerome Lane
    Four of the top players in school history are depicted here including Charles Smith, Don Hennon, Billy Knight and Jerome Lane. Smith, Hennon and Knight are the three Pitt players to have their jerseys retired. All three have found success beyond basketball as Hennon became a medical doctor, Knight serves as General Manager for the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks and Smith, following a productive NBA career, is a successful businessman and chairman of the Charles D. Smith Foundation, an organization dedicated to providing a positive alternative for today’s youth. An NBA veteran, Lane is shown here throwing down his backboard shattering dunk against Providence on Jan. 25, 1988. “Send it in Jerome!” proclaimed ESPN broadcaster Bill Raftery minutes after Lane’s thunderous dunk prompted a 30-minute delay in the game. Pitt went on to claim a 90-56 victory, then went on to capture the 1987-88 Big East regular season title. The game is forever labeled as the “Night the House Came Down.” RECORDS & ACHIEVEMENTS NATIONAL HONORS Charles Smith, H.M., 1987-88 BASKETBALL HALL OF FAME The Sporting News Naismith Memorial Basketball Brandin Knight, 2ndTeam, 2001-02 Hall of Fame Henry Clifford “Doc” Carlson, M.D., Scripps Howard News Service Elected, 1959 Charles Smith, 1st Team, 1987-88 Charley Hyatt, Elected, 1959 USBWA All-America Helms Athletic Foundation Hall of Jerome Lane, 2nd Team, 1987-88 Fame Henry Clifford “Doc” Carlson, M.D. NABC All-America Don Hennon, Inducted, 1970 Don Hennon, 2nd Team, 1957-58 Charley Hyatt Don Hennon, 2nd Team, 1958-59 Billy Knight,
