Cincinnati, OH - The Cincinnati Cyclones have signed forward TAYLOR CRUNK to a Standard Player Contract (SPC) for the 2020-21 season.

Crunk joins the Cyclones in what is to be his seventh professional hockey season.

Prior to heading to the Black Hills, Crunk spent parts of four seasons with inner-division rival Fort Wayne where he scored 18 points and amassed 318 penalty minutes in 118 games.

"I am thrilled to be joining this squad," remarked Crunk. "It is a great organization with a winning tradition. I can't wait to be a part of it and keep that tradition going. Cincinnati is an amazing city with a great fan base and I'm excited to call it home for the season."

Prior to turning pro, the 6'1" San Jacinto, California native played junior hockey with the bulk of his games spent with the Victoria Royals and Vancouver Giants of the WHL. Through 303 games, Crunk scored 66 points while accruing 354 penalty minutes.
