Frank Dooley

Frank Martin Dooley (March 21, 1929 – November 14, 2022) was an American competition swimmer who represented the United States at the 1952 Summer Olympics in Helsinki, Finland.[1] Dooley swam for the gold medal-winning U.S. team in the qualifying heats of the men's 4×200-meter freestyle relay.[1][2] He did not receive a medal, however, because under the Olympic swimming rules in effect in 1952, only relay swimmers who competed in the event final were medal-eligible.
