LAS CRUCES, N.M. (AP) -- Oklahoma native and former New Mexico State and Illinois men's basketball coach Lou Henson is being treated again for cancer.

Henson says he feels strong and even played golf less than a day after resuming chemotherapy treatments in Illinois where he lives during the summer.

The 75-year-old Henson says he has the same form of intestinal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that he was diagnosed with four years ago.

Henson was born in the Wagoner County town of Okay and retired from coaching in January 2005 with 779 career wins.
