More about Nick

Nick Brunker Thanks for checking out my page! I am the Director of Public Relations / Broadcasting / New Media for the 2-time Kelly Cup Champion Cincinnati Cyclones. You can hear me call the play-by-play of every game on CyclonesHockey.com.

When ESPN 1530's Lance McAlister and Mo Egger go on vacation, you can often hear me filling in for them as well.

I started my career at Miami University, where I served as the Sports Director at WMSR Radio in Oxford – covering RedHawks Football, Hockey, Basketball, and Baseball.

My broadcast experience also includes a two-year stint with the Dayton Dragons – the Cincinnati Reds Class “A” Affiliate – where I called play-by-play action on 1410 ESPN Radio. A bunch of the current Reds were just getting there start when I was there.

I was also the play-by-play voice for the Toledo Storm Hockey Club (ECHL), the “AA” affiliate of the NHL’s Detroit Red Wings during the 2006-07 season. Most recently, I called play-by-play for the "thrilling" Cincinnati Jungle Kats in Arena Football 2.

From 2007-July 2010, I served as executive producer and fill-in host with ClearChannel Cincinnati, working on ESPN 1530, 700 WLW, Fox Sports 1360, and 55 KRC.

I have lived here in Cincinnati my whole life and graduated from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio.

10 actors who were originally considered for famous movie role

#4 Nick Nolte (Han Solo In The Star Wars Trilogy) - Nolte was one of four finalists (Christopher Walken, Burt Reynolds and Harrison Ford were the others) for the role of Han Solo and he apparently lost the role at the last minute. Thankfully Harrison Ford was offered the part instead and Nolte went on to do 48 Hours.
