Dons Mourn the Loss of Hall of Fame Soccer Player Eduardo Rangel

SAN FRANCISCO – The University of San Francisco mourns the loss of men's soccer Hall of Famer Eduardo Rangel who passed away last week. Rangel was a member of the Dons first National Championship in 1966 and was inducted into the USF Hall of Fame in 2017.

Rangel was a forward on USF's soccer team which came to national prominence in the mid-1960's under legendary head coach Steve Negoesco. Rangel's team-leading 21 goals in 1966 helped USF to its first of four NCAA Championships under Negoesco, as the Dons turned back San Jose State, Saint Louis, Army and Long Island en route to the national title.
