Doyle (19), an economics student at the University of Otago, is the Otago champion in the 50m (25.24sec), 100m (54.85sec) and 200m (1min 58.60sec) freestyle events.
He has been a member of coach Andy Adair's Waves squad for the past five years, but did not emerge from the pack until the last few months.
Doyle, a swimmer with international potential, believes his transformation has been helped by the technical instruction he is getting from legendary Australian coach Don Talbot.
Talbot has been working with Waves club swimmers for the past 18 months and his work is starting to show results.
He spent a few days with the Waves squad at a training camp at Noosa Heads this month.
"Don has worked on our technique and it is starting to work for me," Doyle said.
Two years ago, Waves had only a sprinkling of swimmers capable of footing it in the sprints. But at the weekend, Waves swimmers were winning sprint events.
This was demonstrated in the 100m when Doyle exploded from the blocks, led at 15m and had a 2m gap at the turn.
"I knew I could steam it home after that," a confident Doyle said.
Nick Tyrell (Neptune) was lying second 10m out but Rhys Applegarth (Waves) came with a late rush.
The final placings were Doyle 54.85sec, Applegarth 55.31sec and Tyrrell 55.35sec.
Waves swimmers also filled the top spots in the 50m, with Doyle winning in 25.24sec from Kieran Applegarth (25.64sec) and Tyrrell (25.76sec).
Rhys Applegarth won the 50m butterfly in 27.10sec from Tyrrell (27.28sec) and Kieran Applegarth (27.60sec).
The improved sprinting helped Waves win the teams contest with 3254 points from Neptune (2288) and Queenstown (1560).
Tyrrell was the leading male swimmer with 210 points.
Matthew Glassford followed with 186 and Doyle with 118.
Tyrrell won the 50m (29.09sec), 100m (1min 03.05sec) and 200m backstroke (2min 17.74sec).
Katie Kenneally (Neptune) topped the senior women's points with 222 from Phoebe O'Leary (Waves, 158) and Kate Godfrey (Neptune, 152). Kenneally won 10 senior women's events: the 100m (59.65sec), 400m (4min 33.15sec) and 800m (9min 18.33sec) freestyle; the 50m (34.91sec), 100m (1min 17.07sec) and 200m (2min 45.30sec) breaststroke; the 50m (31.04sec) and 100m (1min 04.93sec) butterfly; and the 200m (2min 25.25sec) and 400m (5min 14.04sec) individual medley.
Aleisha Ruske (13), of Neptune, broke three records: the 50m freestyle (28.18sec), 50m butterfly (30.30sec) and 100m butterfly (1min 08.36sec in heats and 1min 07.66sec in final) in the girls aged 12 and 13 grade.
The other record went to Trent Dickie (Clutha), who broke his own record in the boys aged 9 200m backstroke (3min 17.48sec).
Other top individual rankings were: Girls under 9, Erin Bennie (Alexandra); boys under 9, Kou Kitahara (Waves); Girls 10-11, Nicole Ruske (Neptune); boys 10-11, Campbell Russell (Wanaka); girls 12-13, Aleisha Ruske (Neptune); boys 12-13, Patrick Harris (Queenstown); girls 14-15, Stef Gillespie (Waves); boys 14-15, Thomas Wardhaugh (Waves).
