Originally from Newton, Massachusetts, Lily attended Newton North High School before coming to Scripps. In addition to running Track & Field in high school, Lily competed for Newton North's Volleyball and Wrestling teams.  

Lily has competed on the CMS Track and Field team since her freshman year at Scripps College.  She competes primarily in the 400 meter and was the lead-off leg for the 2009 Championship 4x400 meter relay team.  

As a senior she has decided to try out Cross-County since she has always enjoyed going on long runs back in Massachusetts.
