RUTHERFORD, N.J. - Josh Delva of South Orange has signed a national letter of intent to continue his soccer career at Felician College, Felician coach Patrick Snyder announced today. Additionally, Kevin Sinic of Leibnitz, Austria, has inked an athletic financial aid agreement and will join the Golden Falcons.

Delva, a 5-foot-10, 165-pound midfielder, is a 2009 graduate of Columbia High of Maplewood, where he was a honorable-mention all-state selection as a senior. In the summer of 2008, he won a Super-Y League national championship while playing for the TSF Wildcats. Delva intends to major in business administration at Felician. 

Sinic, an outside midfielder, joins the Golden Falcons with three years of eligibility after attending Karl Franz University in Graz, Austria. At 6-foot-3 and 180 pounds, he last played for the Austrian club SV Gleinstaetten.

Delva and Sinic join defender Chris Giordano (Staten Island, NY/St. Peter's Boys) and goalkeeper David Lo Bue (Elmwood Park, NJ/Don Bosco Prep) as scholarship newcomers to Felician, an NCAA Division II member of the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference. The Golden Falcons registered a 6-10-1 won-lost-tied record in 2008, an improvement of three victories over the previous season.
