Frank Wallace (born Frank Valicenti; July 15, 1922 – November 13, 1979) was an American international soccer player who played as forward. He earned 7 caps and scored 3 goals for the United States men's national soccer team, and played in the U.S. team's historic 1–0 victory over England in the 1950 FIFA World Cup.[1] He is a member of the National Soccer Hall of Fame.

During World War II, he was captured by the Germans and spent sixteen months in a prisoner of war camp. After returning to St. Louis, he played with Raftery during the 1945–1946 season.[2] He was the third leading scorer in the St. Louis Major League during the 1947–1948 season while playing with Steamfitters.[3] He later spent ten seasons with St. Louis Simpkins-Ford.
He was inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame in 1976 and the St. Louis Soccer Hall of Fame in 1975.[4][5]
He died November 13, 1979, in St. Louis. He is buried at Resurrection Cemetery, Affton, Missouri.
