Craig Brunes at Central Connecticut State. Jan. 1996.

Brunes's shot was was from the left corner after Bryce had drawn significant attention from CCSU defense. It definitely was a Saturday night, because moments after I got off the air, I was handed a note to call in to Indiana Sports Talk (Bob Lovell's longtime statewide radio show) with the details. When they put me on hold, the first thing I heard was Lovell saying "that was Brownsburg coach Steve Brunes, thanks Steve. From high school basketball the college basketball, Valpo beats Central Conn. State tonight in a close one....."
I'm guessing in the days of no internet and cell phones, Coach Brunes had no idea at that moment his son had hit a game winner.
