Diving

Sophomore Dan Watson finished third yesterday in the one-meter springboard event at the U.S. Indoor Diving Championships in Indianapolis.

Watson finished with 602.31 points, just behind second-place Rob Bollinger's 605 25, while defending champ Greg Louganis of the Mission Viejo swimming club won by 28 points. "This was Dan's best performance I've seen in the one-meter," said Harvard Coach John Walker, adding it was the best any Crimson diver has done in the event.

Watson will compete in the three-meter event today and tomorrow.

Celtics Lose

Kelly Tripucka and Isiah Thomas paced a fast-quarter surge last night that carried the Detroit Pistons to a 113-101 victory over the Celtics.

Tripucka had three baskets and Thomas a pair during a 14-2 Detroit outburst. The bombardment came at the expense of the Boston second-stringers, as Coach Bill Fitch gave his starters an extra rest in the late going after the Celtics had pulled to within 93-91.

The Celtics played without forward Larry Bird, who was left home with a groin injury. They went on a scoring spree in the third quarter behind the shooting of Kevin McHale and Gerald Henderson to wipe out an early 15-point Detroit lead and pull in front momentarily, 80-78.
