Reception for Ciocco family Oct. 18

There will be a reception for the Ciocco family honoring their son, Merrimack assistant coach Josh Ciocco, next Tuesday (Oct. 18) from 3-6 p.m. at Salvatore’s in Lawrence (354 Merrimack Street).

The reception is open to the public.

Ciocco will also be honored before that evening’s UNH-Merrimack game for his contributions to both schools, programs, and campuses.

Ciocco, who was entering his fifth season as an assistant coach at Merrimack, passed away last week. Ciocco is a former captain at UNH (2007).
