==Biography==
Del Carroll had begun riding horses as a boy of ten which as a young man led to choosing to serve in the cavalry in the United States Army during World War II. He rose to the rank of First Lieutenant. According to a 1945 Pennsylvania Military College article, he "was a member of the mechanized cvalry group that did the dangerous advance scouting during the German campaign."
Carroll's knowledge of horses led to his participation in the game of polo. One of the top twenty-five players in the world during the 1950s and 1960s, he became an eight-goal handicap player. He remained active in the game throughout his life and at the time of his death at age sixty-two still had a four-goal handicap.
() His interest in horses also led to a career as a professional horse trainer, conditioning Thoroughbreds for friends and fellow polo players, William S. Farish III and Michael Grace Phipps.
