A Trenton State College letterwinner in football and track and field, Paul Vichroski is celebrating his 34th season as an assistant coach with the Lions. After graduating from Trenton Central High School in 1959, Vichroski attended nearby Mercer County Community College before arriving at TSC. A two-way starter in football as a center and defensive tackle, he started for three years for former coach Bob Salois. In 1963, he was invited to the Dallas Cowboys training camp for a tryout.
Vichroski, who specialized in the shot, javelin, and discus events for the TSC track team, is employed full-time as a civil engineer. He lives in Trenton along with wife Barbara, daughters Jennifer, 37; Laura, 29; and son Paul, 33. Among his many hobbies are weight training, running, fishing and gardening.
