    Edwards was 64.



    Lewis Clareburt is missing the water.

    The kiwi swimmer is able to keep fit while in lockdown with running, rowing and weights, but has no access to a pool.

    Clareburt says he can't wait to go for a dip.



    Plans continue for the Auckland Tuatara's third Australian baseball league season, despite the world's turmoil.

    He says his players would be ready to play with two week's notice, if the game resumes then.
