New York Hakoah II
The name was revived just prior to the 1956-57 season when a revived Brooklyn Hakoah merged with New York Americans to become the New York Hakoah-Americans. They then became New York Hakoah for the 1962-63 season. They were American Soccer League champions three times in a row between 1957 and 1959.
Kurt Lamm was coach of the team for 14 years, during which it won three successive American Soccer League Championships, from 1955 to 1958. He was named ASL’s Manager of the Year for the 1957–58 and 1962–63 seasons.

Famous quotes containing the word york:
“The last publicized center of American writing was Manhattan. Its writers became known as the New York Intellectuals. With important connections to publishing, and universities, with access to the major book reviews, they were able to pose as the vanguard of American culture when they were so obsessed with the two Joes—McCarthy and Stalin—that they were to produce only two artists, Saul Bellow and Philip Roth, who left town.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
