A Saugus resident, Sacco has been anxious to get the season started since he got hired. Now it's time for Sacco and the Vikings to get rolling. Last winter, the Vikings nished the regular sea- son at 8-12 and earned the No. 11 seed in the Division 4 North state tournament. Winthrop rolled through Maimonides in the rst round before falling to St. Mary's in the quarter - nals. Winthrop began prac- tices in preparation for the upcoming season last week, and thus far Sacco likes the early progress the Vikings have shown.
