Isaac Kissi (born May 14, 1987, in Brong-Ahafo) is a Ghanaian footballer.
Kiss attended the Presbyterian Boys Secondary School in his native Ghana, and studied for two years at the University of Ghana, before accepting a soccer scholarship with the University of Dayton in the United States in 2007. He subsequently played three years of college soccer with the Flyers; he was selected to the Atlantic 10 All-Championship Team and the UNCW Courtyard by Marriott All-Tournament Team as a sophomore in 2008.
Kissi was drafted in the third round (42nd overall) of the 2010 MLS SuperDraft by Chivas USA[1] but was not offered a contract by the team and was cut before the season started.
He subsequently signed with the Rochester Rhinos,[2] and made his professional debut on May 19, 2010, in a game against Crystal Palace Baltimore.[3] He scored his first two professional goals on June 12, 2010, in a 2–1 win, again over Crystal Palace Baltimore.[4] Rochester re-signed Kissi for the 2012 season, which will be his third with the club, on October 25, 2011.[5]
