James Foye Named to Senior CLASS Award All-America Second Team

HANOVER, N.H. — Dartmouth guard James Foye, one of 10 finalists for the Senior CLASS Award across NCAA Division I men's basketball, was named to the organization's All-America Second Team on Tuesday. Marquette's Markus Howard was selected as the Senior CLASS Award winner, given annually to the most outstanding senior student-athlete in Division I men's basketball.

An economics major with a 3.97 GPA, Foye was one of the top perimeter shooters in the Ivy League for the last two years and started every game for the Big Green. The senior tri-captain averaged 9.7 points a game while hitting 60 3-pointers with 42.6 percent accuracy, making him the only player in the conference to make at least two per game at better than a 40-percent clip. In addition, the native of Hamilton, Massachusetts, led Dartmouth with 62 assists and an assist-to-turnover ratio of nearly 2.0 (32 turnovers) while hauling in 3.2 rebounds a night.

Foye finished his career with 646 points (7.0 per game) and 124 3-pointers — 11th all-time for the Big Green — hitting 40.3 percent to rank fourth on the Dartmouth career list. He is the first Dartmouth men's basketball player to earn Academic All-America honors twice (or even once) since Sea Lonergan '97 made the first team in 1995-96 and the second team as a senior in 1996-97. The only other two-time selection is John Mackay '90, named to the third team in each of his final two seasons with the Big Green.

A two-time CoSIDA Academic All-America Second Team selection, Foye volunteered with the Upper Valley Haven After School program as well as at Hero fundraising events for the Children's Hospital at Dartmouth (CHaD) while also visiting children at the hospital. Foye was the first Dartmouth men's basketball player to be named a Senior CLASS Award candidate, let alone a finalist, since the program's inception in 2002.

The finalists were chosen by national media from the list of 30 men's candidates and 30 women's candidates announced earlier in the season. An acronym for Celebrating Loyalty and Achievement for Staying in School, the Senior CLASS Award focuses on the total student-athlete and encourages students to use their platform in athletics to make a positive impact as leaders in their communities.
