Ortona lost Antonio De Paola through injury and had to get back on the market to maintain the high level of play produced until then. The club reached an agreement with Jackson Rivera. Explosive, solid and intelligent both in attack and reception, the Puerto Rican spiker is known to the Italian public thanks to his superb outing against the Italian national team in the World Championships 2014 in Poland. A moment to forget for Italy, a historical one for Porto Rico.
