In Memoriam: Sam Nover
December 4, 2018
Longtime WIIC/WPXI (11) Sports Anchor Sam Nover passed away in his sleep at his home in Florida today. He was 77. He spent nearly 30 years at channel 11 where he, among other accomplishments, had the final interview with Roberto Clemente before his death in 1972.
Nover recently spent most of the year in Florida, but returned to Pittsburgh a few months each year.

I remember watching Sam Nover on Channel 11 years ago. He was a very classy sports anchor.
Hands-down Sam Nover was the best sportscaster in Pittsburgh history. Sam was knowledgeable, humorous and most of all fair.
