Lily Doyle
Vassar
Super-smart and a fairly talented swimmer, Lily Doyle is the complete college athlete package.
The Coupeville High School grad, now a junior at Vassar College, recently kicked off her third season with the Brewers by swimming in three meets clad in the burgundy and gray of her soon-to-be alma mater.
Vassar is 2-1 on the young season, having split with Clarkson (a 229-59 win) and Worcester Polytechnic Institute (a narrow 161-138 loss) Oct. 27, followed by a convincing 175-125 thumping of Skidmore College Nov. 3.
Doyle’s best event came in the 200 yard backstroke against Skidmore, when she finished fifth with a personal season-best of two minutes, 34.91 seconds. She added a sixth in the 100 back (1:14.18).
In the earlier three-team meet, she claimed sixth in both of her events (1:12.61 in the 100 and 2:36.26 in the 200), while also swimming a leg on a 400 free relay team.
