1979 WOMEN'S FINAL
After a third place finish in 1977 and 2nd in 1978, volleyball player Linda Fernandez won the Superstars title in the absence of three-time champion Anne Henning, who was forced into retirement. Basketball's Carol Blazejowski set a record of 201 in bowling and Linda Fernandez a new record in the obstacle course with a run of 22.49 seconds. I have limited information beyond the final standings.
