Kelly won a silver in springboard in 1984 and a bronze in 1988.
She was hot.
I was an AAU swimmer while she worked out in the diving well, back in the
70's. I did a little web surfing and she still seems active in supporting
the sport.

Yes I remember her. I think from Sweden. Got me to start watching
diving>>
~ I believe you're thinking of Daphne Jongejahns (sp?) who if I remember
correctly, placed in the top 10 in women's platform at the 1984
Olympics. I believe she was from Sweden, possibly Norway. Her
exceptional good looks and long blonde hair got her lots of air time.

I guess Daphne made quite an impression considering here it is 20 years
later and we are still talking about a 10th place diver. lol

having an *** over her.
