And then there were eight. The field quickly went from 64 of the best sports figures in Pittsburgh history, down to just eight.
From the North Side Region, #1 Mario Lemieux and #3 Jack Lambert moved on. From the South Side Region, #5 Myron Cope, who is fresh off an upset of #1 “Mean Joe” Greene, will join #2 Chuck Noll in the regional finals.
On the right side of the bracket, #1 Roberto Clemente was able to hold off #4 Sidney Crosby as he advances to take on #3 Franco Harris in the Mt. Washington Regional final. #1 Willie Stargell will join #2 Terry Bradshaw from the Station Square Region.
After the Elite 8, comes the Final Four. Which four sports icons from the city of Pittsburgh will advance? As always, the call is yours!
