About 100 people gathered on Lyman Street on Sunday to greet three of the cast members of "Good Morning America" as part of the popular morning shows' "Whistle-Stop Tour 2008." Robin Roberts, Diane Sawyer (center) and Chris Cuomo (left), coming from the Worcester area, stayed in Springfield about 20 minutes. With several repoters asking questions of attendees about their view on the presidential race, the three television stars were challenged to see how many free throws they could successfully complete within one minute. They then were all beat by Central High School basketball team member Christopher Meminger (right) who was congratulated by Cuomo.
