Whenever he said the Steelers took a chance on a 34-year-old kid from Crafton, it made everyone in the community feel special," said Nate Milsom, the athletic director at Carlynton High School.Milsom said Cowher has made a few notable visits to the high school during the past 15 years, and even invited the football team to be with him as he was inducted into the Steelers Hall of Honor in 2018.Milsom hopes to take the Carlynton football team to Canton, Ohio, to be with Cowher during the Hall of Fame induction ceremony, which is scheduled for Aug. 8.
