LOWELL, Mass. – Our hearts are heavy today, as we mourn the loss of Assistant AD for Sports Performance Keith Vinci, who passed away Thursday after courageously battling Burkitt's Lymphoma for the second time.
 
A native of Milford, Connecticut, Vinci was in his ninth year as part of the River Hawks' staff. He will be remembered for not only helping countless student-athletes, past and present, achieve their athletic bests, but also for helping them to develop as individuals outside of sports.  
 
Details about a celebration of life event to be held on campus will be forthcoming.  
 
Our deepest condolences go out to the entire Vinci family and anyone who had the honor of knowing Keith.
