The Chilliwack Chiefs are proud to announce the commitment of 2003-born defender Joshua Orrico for the 2021-22 BCHL season. Orrico, a native of Woodbridge, Ontario is currently suiting up for St. Andrews College, a familiar recruiting ground for the Chiefs organization. Last season, he totalled 6 goals, 26 assists for 32 points in 56 games played. He is an elite skater, with a high-end skill set that will help the Chiefs transition game next season. “Josh is a player we feel will really add to our team speed and transition game next season.” Said Chiefs Associate Coach and Assistant GM Brad Rihela. “We are really excited that he made the decision to commit to Chilliwack. We have had a lot of success with recruiting players from SAC, and we know that with the great program Coach Manning and his staff run, these players are ready to step in and make an impact.”
