Former Camel All-American David Doyle ('87) is among six individuals in the 2001 Indoor Soccer Hall of Fame induction class.
 
The Indoor Soccer Hall of Fame announced its fifth class of inductees this month.  For the first time, all six selections were offensive players.
 
Chico Borja, Andy Chapman, Jan Goossens, Fred Grgurev, Michael King, and Doyle were the latest indoor soccer greats to be inducted. The six players combined for 3,131 goals in careers that spanned from 1978 to 2008.
 
Doyle was inducted into the Campbell Sports Hall of Fame in 2006 and the Big South Conference Hall of Fame in 2015.
 
A native of Dublin, Ireland, Doyle arrived at Campbell in the fall of 1983 and by the time his four-year career ended, he ranked among the 25 most prolific goal scorers in NCAA Division I history. During his career, Doyle's goal-scoring helped propel the Fighting Camels to Big South Conference Championships in 1984 and 1985 and a league runner-up finish in 1986. He finished his career with 72 goals in 75 matches.
 
As a senior in 1986, Doyle set a school record for goals and points scored in the Division I era by leading the nation with 34 goals and 74 points. He scored at least three goals in a match five times during that year, including a pair of five-goal outings, which stand as the program's highest single-match output since the Camels moved to Division I in 1977.
 
Doyle was honored in 1986 with first-team All-South Region recognition. He also was named as Campbell's first NCAA Division I men's soccer All-American that year. He was twice named to the All-Big South Conference team and was recognized as Campbell's Outstanding Male Athlete for the 1986-87 academic year.
 
Following his graduation in 1987, Doyle was selected in the first round (and third overall) by the Kansas City Comets in the Major Indoor Soccer League draft. Upon his retirement in 2004 at the conclusion of a 19-season career, Doyle ranked among the top 10 scorers in professional indoor soccer history.
 
Doyle was named Rookie of the Year of the Major Indoor Soccer League in 1987 and was a 10-time All-Star and all-league selection. He was named MVP of the World Indoor Soccer League in 1999 and was MVP of the Continental Indoor Soccer League All-Star Game in 1996.
 
He posted the first of five straight 50-goal seasons in 1991-92 with the Dallas Sidekicks and was one of the few players who were able to play year-round in the summer CISL and winter NPSL. Doyle won three championships with the Sidekicks and appeared in five other finals with the Sidekicks and St. Louis Ambush. In total he scored 637 goals in 526 career games, was selected to the All-Star team seven times, was all-league first team six times, and was the 1999 WISL Most Valuable Player.
 
Doyle has remained involved in the sport since his playing days ended. He is now varsity boys soccer coach at Flour Mound (Texas) High School and also is a coaching staff member with the Texas Renegades club.  He also coached at DeSoto High School (1999-2000) and Carrollton Newman Smith High School (2004-08).
 
He and his wife, Jolyne, are parents of two sons, Conor and Brendan.
