Sal Vaccaro was an assistant coach for the men's soccer program for five years at North Central. A plaque honoring him hangs in Merner Field House. xx
To a man who loved the game and sincerely cared for those that played it.
His spirit will remain always in the soccer program at NCC.
We can still hear his voice echoing, "Come on guys, play soccer, will you!"
