Danielle Sicinski (born November 30, 1978) is a Canadian curler from Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan.[3] She currently plays lead on Team Penny Barker. With Barker, she won the 2017 Saskatchewan Scotties Tournament of Hearts and represented Saskatchewan at the 2017 Scotties Tournament of Hearts.

Career[]

Sicinski joined the Barker rink in 2009 for the 2009–10 season. After a few slow seasons, she played in her first Grand Slam of Curling event at the 2012 Colonial Square Ladies Classic. Her then rink of Barker, third and second lost all three of their games in the triple knock-out tournament. They also played in the 2011 and 2013 Saskatchewan Scotties Tournament of Hearts.[4] At the 2011 Saskatchewan Scotties Tournament of Hearts, her team of Barker, third and lead finished the event with a 1–4 record. At the 2013 event, they finished with a 2–3 record.

After taking a year off competitive curling during the 2013–14 season, Sicinski rejoined the Barker rink for the 2014–15 season. They began the season by playing in the 2014 Colonial Square Ladies Classic, failing to advance to the playoffs. They were however able to win two Saskatchewan Curling Tour events, qualifying them for the 2015 Saskatchewan Scotties Tournament of Hearts, where they finished 2–3. The next season, her rink of Barker, Deanna Doig and Hoffmann finished 3–3 at the 2016 Saskatchewan Scotties Tournament of Hearts, once again failing to advance.

Sicinski and her team won the 2017 Saskatchewan Scotties Tournament of Hearts the following season despite entering the tournament as an underdog. Her team finished 4–4 through the round robin before winning the tiebreaker and three straight playoff games to claim the title.[5] They defeated heavily favored teams Stefanie Lawton in the semifinal and Robyn Silvernagle in the final by scoring four in the tenth end.[6] At the 2017 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, they were one of two teams making their debut appearance at the hearts and it showed as they finished the round robin with a 1–10 record, only defeating Nova Scotia's Mary Mattatall.[7]

With her Saskatchewan Scotties championship, Sicinski's rink had a good start to the 2017–18 season, winning the DEKALB Superspiel on the World Curling Tour.[8] They also finished runner-up at the Medicine Hat Charity Classic and won two Saskatchewan Curling Tour events. They would not defend their provincial title however, losing in the 3 vs. 4 page playoff game at the 2018 Saskatchewan Scotties Tournament of Hearts to Sherry Anderson, who went on to win the event.[9] The rink added to the lineup for the 2018–19 season, replacing Schneider.[10] They qualified for the 2019 Saskatchewan Scotties Tournament of Hearts, but failed to advance to the playoffs after a 4–4 round robin record.[11] The team stayed intact the following season and won three more Saskatchewan Tour events. Their successful results qualified them for the 2020 Saskatchewan Scotties Tournament of Hearts, which was held in a triple knockout format this year.[12] They qualified for the playoffs through the C side before losing to the Sherry Anderson rink in 3 vs. 4 game, like in 2018.
