The 1980 NAIA Soccer Championship was the 22nd annual tournament held by the NAIA to determine the national champion of men's college soccer among its members in the United States and Canada.
Three-time defending champions Quincy (IL) defeated Simon Fraser in the final, 1–0, to claim the Hawks' tenth NAIA national title.
The final was again played at Sangamon State University in Springfield, Illinois.[1]
The tournament field remained fixed at ten teams. Two consolation games were eliminated, however, reducing the number of games from fifteen to thirteen.
