Plymouth State University

LILLIAN PELTZ PETOW ('73):  Lillian Peltz enrolled at Plymouth State College in 1969 and would go on to become one of PSC’s finest multiple sport student-athletes. But while she is remembered as being a standout on the women’s ski team and women’s lacrosse team as an undergraduate, it was as a tennis player that Peltz really left her mark.

Peltz compiled one of the top singles records each year that she competed on the PSC women’s tennis team to form a top doubles combination. In 1971 and again in 1972, the tandem of Peltz and fellow Hall of Famer Lynn Miller '74 (HOF 1989) would triumph against the best doubles teams the region had to offer while earning consecutive New England doubles titles.

Peltz remained active in athletics after graduating from PSC. She recently teamed up with Lee Delefausse of Concord, N.H., to earn the nation's #3 tennis doubles ranking for their age group.  Today, with the support of her husband Bob, Lillian Peltz Petow is as active in tennis as ever.
