(KDKA/AP) VALHALLA, New York - The college basketball community is in mourning, after learning of the death of Maggie Dixon.

Dixon, was the coach of the U.S. Military Academy's women's basketball team and sister of Pitt men’s basketball coach Jamie Dixon.

She died yesterday afternoon, but the news of her death wasn’t made public until Friday morning.

Dixon collapsed Wednesday at West Point. That morning, she had breakfast with her brother, Jamie.

Doctors say she had an arrhythmic heart epidsode, but don’t know what caused it.

She was hired a few weeks before the season began, and led the Black Knights to their first NCAA tournament appearance last month.

Maggie and Jamie are believed to have been the first brother and sister to have coached in the NCAA tournament in the same year.

Dixon says Maggie seemed fine when they had breakfast together Wednesday, but at a friend's house at West Point that afternoon, she said she wasn't feeling well and collapsed.

An autopsy is scheduled for today.
