Two members of the original Rochester Lancers have passed away -- former coach Sal DeRosa and ex-defender Omero Paris.
DeRosa, a native of Italy, coached the Lancers to their only North American Soccer League championship in 1970, taking over the team midway through the season after Alex Perolli left the club. He was 82.
Paris, who died on Friday, was 77.
