Bio of this Great Soccer Star:
MLS Rochester Rhinos - Chirico signed a one year contract in December of 2005 to play with Rochester Rhinos of the USL 1st Division. After 5 months of action he tore knee ligaments and had to have reconstructive knee surgery ending his professional career.

The team is comprised of many former pro and division one players, and consistently ranks among the top amateur teams in the country.
