George Nazario was one of the most successful men’s soccer players of all-time at Seton Hall. In total, he was a member of four NCAA Tournament teams (1986, 1987, 1988, 1990) and three BIG EAST Championship winning squads (1986, 1987, 1990). A stalwart in the backfield, Nazario was one of the best defenders in program history and the first to be named BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Year, earning the honor in 1990. He also was 1987 BIG EAST South Division Co-Player of the Year, three-time first-team All-Mid Atlantic Region and three-time first-team All-New Jersey. Now coaching, Nazario has served as the head men’s soccer coach at The College of New Jersey for over 20 years, reaching the NCAA Div. III Tournament four times and winning the 1996 Div. III national championship.
