Lenzi Sets Sights On August National Diving Titles
SIU student Joel Lenzi leaves Carbondale for Philadelphia to train for the national AAU outdoor swimming and diving championships in August. The 18 year old seeks the double crown in women's diving with highboard and platform events, aiming for a bid to the 1984 Olympic team. Lenzi previously won AAU indoor highboard and low board titles in Florida and trains under Ward O Connell with Pan American Games coach Bob Raynbo in Philadelphia. She will face Patsy Willard of Phoenix and other top divers, hoping to balance practice with a part time job and a return to SIU next fall.

Murky Water Hampers Area Fishermen
Murky water hinders fishing across Southern Illinois with few catches near shore. At Horseshoe Lake and nearby waters some crappie and bluegill are reported, while Murphysboro yields a few bass. The only bright spot is Horseshoe where anglers report excellent crappie and bluegill. Memorial Day angling nets several dozen fish per day at the spillway area. Public ponds show activity though overall conditions remain sparse.
