At Pebble Beach Tom Watson and Tim Herron share the lead as round two unfolds. Australian Open champ Korda earns his first Grand Slam title. Fairview rallies to topple Ridgeville in prep wrestling. Cleveland St. suffers a narrow loss in a tight contest.
Before Cleveland’s 1980 home opener, rookie outfielder Joe Charboneau wowed a bar crowd by inserting a beer bottle into his eye socket and nostril in a stunt that sparked legends of a rugged, self taught star. He grew up poor, fought in boxcars, pulled teeth, and scarred himself, yet earned AL Rookie of the Year and became a radio favorite nicknamed “Super Joe” before a fall back to the minors and later a youth baseball school in Avon Lake.
Cleveland beat Detroit 90 88 as Zydrunas Ilgauskas scored a career high 32 points. Guard Derek Anderson will miss six to eight weeks with a partial MCL tear in his right knee after a Friday fall in Indiana. Anderson expects a quicker return despite the setback.
Rocky River beat Olmsted Falls 56 44 Saturday night before a near two thousand strong crowd. The Pirates move into a share of first place in the Southwestern Conference at 1 1, ahead of North Olmsted which fell to Westlake. Olmsted Falls had won 10 straight against Rocky River and 39 straight in league play.
Mentor topped Elyria 58 48 as the Cardinals closed with a 100 scoring run while Elyria failed to score in the final 4 55. Sophomore center Sandy Lewis scored a season high 28 points and grabbed 11 rebounds for Mentor, with Emily Spehek adding 12 and Jill Singa 11. Elyria fell to 8 8 overall, 7 6 in LE L, and coach Mike Walsh blamed fatigue after a seven of eight road stretch and missed shots at the end.
