Mario Lemieux’s name, family and
foundation dot the UPMC landscape already. There are Austin’s Playrooms in
seven spots around the system, from McKeesport
to Magee
to Mercy
to Children’s, where there also
stands a Lemieux Sibling Center. There are the Children’s Home of Pittsburgh
and the Lemieux Family Center plus the Mario Lemieux Center for Blood Cancers
opened last December. And more.
So when the NHL Pittsburgh
Penguins and UPMC joined together to build in Cranberry a practice facility and
Sports Medicine clinic like nowhere else in North America, there was no other
name to attach to it: The UPMC Lemieux Sports Complex.
