I regret to inform of the passing of Wayne Pitzer, an all-BSC cornerback in the mid-1960'. He died in Ft. Meyers, Fla of an apparent heart attack.
RIP Wayne Pitzer

Re: Bobcat Passes
I knew him pretty well after he finished playing. Great guy....one of Sweeney's recruits from Ohio I believe.....he and his younger brother Jerry.

I roomed with Wayne's brother Jerry my freshman year 1966. Both were great guys. They were from western Pennslyvania around the Beaver Falls area I believe. RIP Wayne.

Re: Bobcat Passes
That's right...the Pitzers were from Pennsylvania.....I was thinking of another guy who ran around with us from Ohio.

Re: Bobcat Passes
Butch (Gene) Weyer? I believe he was from Sandusky. Roomed in South Hedges in 1967-68 with another player named Corky Domenic (Sp). They shared a room next to mine on the 10th floor. I remember seeing Jerry up there often. I think Butch actually played during the time Parac coached. Not sure what happened to Jerry after his freshman year.Helcat72 wrote:That's right...the Pitzers were from Pennsylvania.....I was thinking of another guy who ran around with us from Ohio.

Re: Bobcat Passes
Yup Weyer was the one I was thinking of....I didn't know Corky. How about Bob Becker...he was a long snapper who also wrestled. He was from Pleasant Hill California.Cat_gld wrote:Butch (Gene) Weyer?
