Doyle had an amazing season last year, as she played in 13 games, registering 3 goals and 5 assists for 8 points. One of her goals came via the power play and she scored a game winning goal against the Riveters. She also accounted for 15 blocked shots, in the newly revamped defensive play that the Whale displayed last season. Also, in the playoff game against the Riveters, she recorded an assist and a blocked shot.
