Career
Lilly won the 2010, 2011 and 2012 Northern Ontario Junior Curling Championships. This qualified her for the Canadian Junior Curling Championships in each of those years. At the 2010 Canadian Junior Curling Championships, Lilly skipped the rink of Kim Curtin, Jennifer Gates and Kaitlynd Burns to a 9-3 round robin record. The team then lost to British Columbia's Dailene Sivertson in the semi-final, to finish third overall. At the 2011 Canadian Junior Curling Championships, Lilly's team of Gates, Courtney Chenier and Curtin had a more disappointing tournament, going 6-6, and missing the playoffs. At the 2012 Canadian Junior Curling Championships, her team of Crystal Lillico, Chenier and Avery Thomas went 6-6 again, missing the playoffs.
Following her junior career, Lilly formed a women's team with Chenier, Laura Pickering-Forget and Joanne Comé-Forget. Lilly qualified with this team to her first provincial championship in 2013.
Lilly served as the alternate for the Tracy Horgan rink at the 2013 Olympic Pre-Trials. The team narrowly missed the playoffs losing the 'C' final qualifier, finishing with a 4-3 record.
Lilly and her team had a successful run at the 2014 Ontario Scotties Tournament of Hearts, losing in the 3 vs. 4 page playoff game.
In 2014, Lilly joined the World Curling Tour for her first season with new teammates Sarah Potts, Oye-Sem Won Briand and Tirzah Keffer. This team played in the inaugural Northern Ontario Scotties, where she lost to Horgan in the final.

Team McCarville won the 2019 Northern Ontario Scotties Tournament of Hearts, sending the team once again to represent Northern Ontario at the Scotties. At the 2019 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, the rink had a 8-3 record, putting her team in fourth place in the round robin, earning them a spot in the playoffs. In the 3 vs. 4 game, team McCarville lost to Team Ontario's Rachel Homan rink. The team would once again win the championship the following year at the 2020 Northern Ontario Scotties Tournament of Hearts which qualified them for the 2020 Scotties Tournament of Hearts in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. Team McCarville once again lost the 3 vs. 4 game to Ontario and Homan for the second year in a row.
