SELINSGROVE, Pa. — Susquehanna University's 38th-year assistant football coach Bob Pittello is the next speaker at Susquehanna football's weekly Quarterback Club meeting, to be held on Friday, Nov. 14, at 12 p.m.

Pittello (right) is in his 17th season as an offensive line coach at SU. Including all coaching duties and time as a player, he has been active in 46 of the past 61 seasons of Crusaders football, counting this year. He was a starting guard for the fabled co-head coaches Amos Alonzo Stagg Jr. and Sr. from 1948 to 1950. Pittello's uniform number 66 was retired in a ceremony prior to SU's 1998 Homecoming game. He is the only player in program history to receive such an honor. The Susquehanna football locker room is also named in Pittello's honor.

The Quarterback Club is a luncheon that takes place Fridays from 12–1 p.m. during Susquehanna University football season in the Apple Community Room of the university's James W. Garrett Sports Complex in Selinsgrove, Pa. The event happens every Friday whether the team is playing at home or away.

The weekly cost for admission and lunch is $8.50. A yearly membership to the QB Club is $40, which does not include the weekly fee for lunch. QB Club members receive season tickets in a special seating section and admission to the club's annual postseason awards banquet.

This week's Gus Weber Crusader Football Player of the Week, sponsored this year by Jeff Edmunds, attorney-at-law, and the law firm Carpenter & Carpenter, who will present $100 to the Player of the Week's favorite charity, is actually two players. Senior fullback Charlie Henry (Toms River, N.J./Toms River North) and senior defensive lineman Andy LeClere (Apple Valley, Calif./Granite Hills) will be honored.

Henry paved the way for a Susquehanna rushing attack that gained 315 yards in a 51–21 Liberty League win at Worcester Polytechnic Institute on Nov. 8. LeClere led SU with five tackles (all solo) at WPI, including one tackle for a game-high loss of 13 yards.

The Crusader Football Player of the Week award is named in honor of the late Gustave Weber, who was Susquehanna's president from 1959 to 1977.

Susquehanna head football coach Steve Briggs and his staff will speak at the luncheon, show a highlight film and introduce Henry and LeClere, who will also speak. SU's director of athletics communications Robert Healy, III will give a synopsis of the past week in Crusaders athletics.
