Senior GHS tennis player Alex Foley was recently
named to the All-State Honorable Mention team by the Illinois
Tennis Coaches Association for his performance at the State Tournament. Foley went 4-2 in his fourth consecutive trip to State
and reached the fifth round of consolation. Unlike "All-State"
awards
in some sports, the ITCA All-State award is entirely performance-based. The further a player
gets in the State tournament, the higher the All-State award.
