Pittsburgh native Becca Droz and her teammate Floyd Pierce have withstood blistering competition to make it to episode 10 in Kampen, The Netherlands, on CBS’ “The Amazing Race” at 8 p.m. Wednesday.

Droz and Pierce, also known as “Team Fun,” are among five teams left vying for a $1 million prize on a 25,000-plus mile journey around the world. They competed on the show in 2017 and returned for this year’s all-star season.

Wednesday’s episode features the teams on tandem bikes, boats and possibly hoisting a cow two stories, according to Dan Droz, Becca’s father.

So far, the reality show has taken Droz to Tokyo, Laos, Vietnam, Dubai, Uganda, Switzerland and Croatia.

Becca Droz is a 2008 graduate of Taylor Allderdice High School in Squirrel Hill. She works as an entrepreneur and rock climbing instructor in Boulder, Colo.

Becca’s parents, Cathy and Dan Droz, live in Pittsburgh.
