Shane Kelly, who golfed for the Bronchos from 1977-81, died March 27, 2022. He was an All-American golfer at Central.

Kelly helped the Bronchos to a pair of NAIA national championship appearances during his time at Central, with the third-place finish in 1981 still the best finish in school history. Kelly won his first career tournament as a sophomore at Southwestern and helped Central win the team title too. He tied for first at the CSU Invite at KickingBird Golf Club during his senior season before losing a playoff. Kelly shot three rounds in the 60s during his senior season including back-to-back rounds at the Fort Worth Recreational Tournament. He led the Bronchos to an 11th-place finish at the 1981 NAIA national championship to close out his career at Central.
