Forward who was the surprise star of the United States team at the 1934 World Cup in Italy. The four goals that he scored in a World Cup qualifier against Mexico in 1934 still share the record as the most ever in the U.S. Men’s National Team. Donelli had led the Pittsburgh league in scoring every season from 1922 to 1928 and then played for Heidelberg and Curry in the early 1930s. He briefly came out of retirement to play for Morgan in the 1944 U.S. Open Cup final. Inducted in 1954.
