Regina Jaquess Is "Athlete Of The Month"

Both congratulations and happy birthday wishes are in order for Regina Jaquess, who was just named the May 2012 "Female Athlete Of The Month" by USA Water Ski.

Regina just won her third Masters womens slalom title, rounding 1 buoy at 39-1/2 feet off on May 27. In the semifinals, Jaquess earned the event’s top seed with a Robin Lake course record of 2-1/2 buoys at 39-1/2 feet off. The old record of 2 buoys at 39-1/2 feet off had stood since 2003. Regina also placed fourth in women’s jumping at the Masters, soaring 162 feet in the finals.
