Mildred Olive WILEY

After winning the 1928 Final Trials, the 27-year-old Mildred Wiley of the Boston Swimming Association tied for second at the Olympics, but lost a jump-off – with Carolina Gisolf of Holland. She won the inaugural women's AAU indoor high jump in 1927 and was again indoor champion in 1928. She later became Mildred Dee, but did not compete again after her marriage. She and her husband had five children, one of whom, Bob Dee, played professional football for eight years with the Boston Patriots of the AFL in the 60s.

Personal Best: HJ – 1.56 (1928).
