READING, PA – Defenseman Aaron Titcomb re-signed Wednesday with the Reading Royals on an ECHL contract for the 2020-21 season. He is the fourth defenseman and eighth skater to join the Royals for the team’s 20th anniversary campaign.
Following a March 3rd deal in which Reading acquired Titcomb from Wheeling, the 6-foot-4, 220-pound right-handed shot registered an assist in four Royals games.
“Aaron came in with a few games to go in the season and showed he was capable of fitting in with our system,” Royals Head Coach Kirk MacDonald said. “He’s hard to play against in the defensive end and makes quick decisions with the puck to help engineer our breakout.”
Titcomb is entering his third ECHL season. He spent the majority of his first two with the Nailers and generated two goals and 16 points in 96 ECHL contests. Titcomb was named Wheeling’s 2018-19 Community Service Award Winner for his work in the Ohio Valley with D.A.R.E. and other local programs aimed at preventing childhood drug and alcohol abuse. He also has played for the Adirondack Thunder.
Prior to turning pro, the Charlestown, MA native played four seasons at Merrimack from 2014-18. In 102 games played, Titcomb amassed 1 goal and 13 assists.
