Sice was a key member of the St Jarlath's College team that won the Hogan Cup in 2002 beating St Michael's College, Enniskillen on a scoreline of 3–13 to 0–6 along with Michael Meehan, Niall Coleman, Darren Mullahy, Alan Burke whom he also lined out with for Galway in later years and James Kavanagh, who also lined out for both Kildare and Galway.[citation needed]

The then Galway manager Kevin Walsh confirmed Sice's retirement from the inter-county scene on 8 January 2018, after a postponed FBD Insurance League game against Mayo due to have taken place at MacHale Park.[2]

After briefly returning in 2020, Sice had left the Galway panel by 2021.[3]

His wife, Bevin Sice (née Grant, from Piltown in County Kilkenny) died in 2022, following an illness.[4]
