1 THE CAROLINA TIKES SAT.. JANUARY 17, 1881 1980 Sports Review X By Larry Barber f -The first year of this decade offered the sports fans a delicious dose of ex citement, and 'fond thoughts of anticipation. JThere were power shifts in team sports and many hew faces among individual ithletics. With athletes getting bigger and better as generations pass, more surprises are yet to come. But for now, let us review 1980 alphabetically.- BASEBALL (College): Arizona beat Hawaii 5-3 in the championship game to win the National Col legiate Athletic Associa tion (NCAA) Division I World Series. Division II Winner, Cal Poly Pomona; Division III Winner, Ithaca. MAJOR LEAGUE: The Philadelphia Phillies defeated Kansas City four games to two in last autumn's World Series to win their first champion ship in nearly 100 years. BASKETBALL (College): The Louisville Cardinals capped a sizzl ing season by beating UCLA 59-54 in the na tional championship game. Division II Winner, Virginia Union; Division III Winner, North Park. NATIONAL BASKET BALL ASSOCIATION: The Los Angeles Lakers dominated their Pacific Division (which housed defending champion Seat tle), then won the NBA championship by downing powerful Philadelphia four games to two. BOXING: The most primitive, yet most popular man-to-man sport in the world provided us history that will never die. HEAVYWEIGHTS: Muhammad Ali, having retired with the World1 Boxing Association title, tried a comebak in 1980 against World Boxing Council champion Larry Holmes. That . night (October 2 in Las Vegas), AH had his last hurrah, but it was Holmes fittest hour; as he badly outclass ed" the 38-year-old legend to retain his title. Ali," who had never been stopped, failed to answer the' eleventh round bell. Mike Weaver kayoed John Tate in the 15th round on March 3 1 to take the WBA crown, then stopped South African Gefrie Coetzee in the 13th oftOctober 25 to retain it. LIGHT HEAVY: Mat thew Saad Muhammad,, WBC champ, successfully defended his title three times in 1980; the most satisfying coming against Yaqui Lopez. . "Eddie (Gregory) Mustafa Muhammad destroyed Marvin Johnson March 31 to take the WBA title, then down-. ed "Jerry Martin in July. The two- world champion Muslims aire scheduled to fight for the) "undisputed crown in February, 1981. MIDDLEWEIGHT: Marvin Hagler demolish ed Alan Minter in London to win the undisputed title lasCSeptember. After the fight was stopped in only the third round, MinterV English supporters were so disappointed that they; threw bottles into the ring1 anxTHagler had to be pro- EAGLES (Continued from Page $) record to 6-5; 3-1. in January. The Seahawks dropped to 2-7. UNCW has now lost four in a row. Bishop, who led all scorers with 31 points, tied the. score for the Eagles at : 7-all with a corner jumper atJ6:01.

WELTERWEIGHTS: The biggest matchup in years occurred in this, class, and the main , eventers did it twice. On June 20, Roberta Duran outpointed Sugar Ray Leonard, handing the lat ter his first loss in 28 fights, and taking his WBC title. On November 25, Leonard humiliated . Duran for seven rounds, and the champ quit in the eighth, complaining of stomach cramps. For the two fights, Leonard gross ed around $20 million, while Duran hovered around the $10 'million mark. However, another man waits for either one of the above headline makers; WBC champ Tommy "Hit Man" Hearns. Hearns won the title by stopping Pipino Cuevas in the second round last August.
