Brooklyn Hispano
In 1934, Salcedo signed with Hispano and would play most of his career with the Brooklyn team, beginning as a center forward before moving to right forward. While with Hispano, Salcedo would play with Walter Bahr, another great American player. In his first season, Salcedo scored eleven goals, putting him sixth on the league’s scoring list. This led to his selection to the U.S. national team for an unofficial game with Scotland on May 19, 1935. In 1937, Hispano went to the ASL title game, only to fall to the Kearny Scots.

Famous quotes containing the word brooklyn:
“I know that I will always be expected to have extra insight into black texts—especially texts by black women. A working-class Jewish woman from Brooklyn could become an expert on Shakespeare or Baudelaire, my students seemed to believe, if she mastered the language, the texts, and the critical literature. But they would not grant that a middle-class white man could ever be a trusted authority on Toni Morrison.”
—Claire Oberon Garcia, African American scholar and educator. Chronicle of Higher Education, p. B2 (July 27, 1994)
