Columbia Basin College Athletic Hall of Fame
The 1978 CBC Football team gave the College its only national championship in school history. The Hawks went 10-0 and were voted the top junior college football team in the nation by the two national J-C football publications at season’s end.
Led by an airtight defense that limited opposing teams to an average of less than 150 yards of total offense per game, and a high powered running game on offense; the Hawks demolished their opponents week after week and beat Mt. Hood in the NWAACC championship game. The Hawks claimed four All-Americans from that team: offensive tackle John Little, running back Tom Ramberg, defensive back Mark Kafentzis, and defensive lineman Dave Schneider. CBC was proud to induct them as the first team into the Hall of Fame.
