PITTSBURGH, PA-- The Pittsburgh Pioneers announced today that the team will reschedule an Open Player Tryout set for Saturday, February 4th to Saturday, February 18th. The team was notified by host facility officials of concerns with the scheduled event due to weather concerns. The Pittsburgh area has been hit with a winter cold causing an ice build-up on outside surfaces. The team is working to move the Open Player Tryout event to an temperature controlled  indoor facility.
