BRUNSWICK – Phil Soule, a former UMaine football standout and a member of the Bowdoin College Athletic Hall of Honor, died Sunday morning as the result of an accidental fall while visiting a friend in Vermont, according to a statement released by Bowdoin College President Barry Mills on Monday.

Soule, 64, earned two All-Maine selections as an offensive lineman at UMaine in the early 1960s and went on to join the Bowdoin coaching staff in 1967. He spent the next three decades coaching the offensive and defensive lines as well as spending time coaching wrestling, baseball and squash.

Soule was inducted into the Bowdoin Athletic Hall of Honor in 2004 along with his father and three brothers. Soule was also a canoe racer and ultra-marathoner.

A wake will be held for Soule from 2-4 p.m. and 6-8 p.m. on Wednesday at the Brackett Funeral Home in Brunswick. Funeral services are set for 11 a.m. Thursday at St. Charles Borromeo Church in Brunswick.
