One day after father's death, Farmingdale soccer player lifts team to county finals

A Farmingdale High School soccer player is turning heartbreak into inspiration, honoring his late dad with an unforgettable moment on the pitch. Just one day after losing his father to liver cancer, Adam Vitilano delivered the biggest goal of his high school soccer career. And last week, he scored the game winner in overtime, sending the Farmingdale to the county finals. For Adam, the goal has meant so much more than just a victory. He loved watching me so much on the field, and I think that was really the driving force. I had to play for him that day, and so yeah, I just went with my gut and played my heart out. Now the Dailers are just one win away from a county championship. They're going to take on the Oceanside Sailors this afternoon at Farmingdale State College, with Adam, of course, continuing to play in his dad's memory.
