Jack Vilaca joined his former teammate and current coaching partner, Tony Goncalves, in the 1995 Hall of Fame induction class. 

Vilaca, also a Ludlow native, is the second all-time scorer in Westfield State history, amassing 177 points (77 goals, 23 assists) from 1969 to 1972. 

Vilaca was a three-time All New England selection and a four-time all conference pick. He was named the team's best offensive player in 1971 and 1972 and an "Outstanding College Athletes of America" selection in 1972. Vilaca also played volleyball for four years at Westfield State. 

Consistency was Vilaca's trademark as he scored 21, 17, 20 and 19 goals in his four years. 

He ranks first in career goals and 12th in career assists. The Owls posted a 52-10-5 record during his four years, claiming two conference championships, one New England state title and one state crown. 

Vilaca has coached soccer at Ludlow High School for more than 30 years. He was the head coach from 1984 to 1987 and has served as the assistant head coach from 1976 to 1983, and from 1988 to the present. 

Vilaca played semi-pro soccer from 1973-83. He received a letter of commendation from the Pioneer Valley Soccer Officials Association for his contributions to soccer in Western Massachusetts. 

Vilaca is a teacher at the Paul R. Baird Middle School in Ludlow.
