PITTSBURGH – Pittsburgh Riverhounds SC celebrated one of its city’s favorite sons on Saturday as Mister Rogers Night brought a great crowd to Highmark Stadium to celebrate in the Hounds’ neighborhood. Those fans were then treated to one of the team’s best performances of the 2018 season as a 3-0 victory against the New York Red Bulls II sent Pittsburgh into the top three of the USL Eastern Conference standings.
Here are some of the best sights and sounds from a beautiful day on the Monongahela.

@Tuffy_Shall rebuilding of the @RiverhoundsSC from last season to this is worthy of #USL Owner Of The Year status...If they had such an award, he would top the list. pic.twitter.com/6QuUangqBz

Tuffy's Turf is better than Jerry's World. Great view or the Steel City and a much improved club on the pitch. Love the 2018 squad. Real quality to it. @RiverhoundsSC @Tuffy_Shall pic.twitter.com/gu94MZXmVC
