Audio Information
Description
At 94, Lucille Borgen became the oldest competitor ever in the U.S. National Water Skiing Championships; the world's largest water ski tournament.
She amazed the crowd, winning the slalom and tricks title in her age division.
Lucille survived polio as a child, cancer as an adult and the complete loss of vision in her left eye a few years ago. You'll find her as competent behind the microphone as she is on the water!
