Orlando Solar Bears News Release


Orlando, FL - The Orlando Solar Bears announced today that they have acquired forward Mathew Sisca from the Cincinnati Cyclones.

Sisca (5'8", 174 lbs.) comes to the Solar Bears after earning ECHL All-Rookie Honors last year. In 77 games split between the Bakersfield Condors and Cincinnati Cyclones, Sisca tallied 23 goals and 43 assists for 66 points. His 43 points and 66 assists ranked him second among all rookies, and he was tied for second in the ECHL with three shorthanded helpers.

The Woodbridge, Ontario, native played four seasons in the OHL (Ontario Hockey League) from 2007-2011 with the Niagara IceDogs, Guelph Storm, and Saginaw Spirit, picking up 172 points (71 goals, 101 assists) in 241 games. Sisca was second on his team in goals (35) and fourth in points (65) as a member of the Guelph Storm in 2009-10.
