1983 national basketball championship team headlines this year’s class
To fully gauge the level of talent on the Vikes teams headed into the University of Victoria Sports Hall of Fame in the Class of 2023, one has to consider not only the varsity stage but also the Olympic stage.
UVic basketball stars from the 1983 team, Eli Pasquale and Gerald Kazanowski, the following year would be playing for Canada against Michael Jordan and the U.S. in the semifinals of the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games. The year before, Pasquale, Kazanowski and Kelly Dukeshire from UVic had shocked the U.S. team of Charles Barkley and Karl Malone in the semifinals en route to the gold medal in the 1983 World University Games in Edmonton.
“Our Olympians were a big factor, of course, but we didn’t rely solely on them. We had a great mix and great balance from first- through fifth-year players,” said Lynne Beecroft, who coached the 1992 UVic squad.
