Foy was a prominent fullback for the Auburn Tigers of Alabama Polytechnic Institute.[1] The Auburn media guide also lists his position as a tackle.[2]
He was injured in the 1903 season, suffering a broken collarbone.[3]
He made the All-Southern team in 1904, Mike Donahue's first season as head coach. Auburn was the undefeated SIAA co-champion with Vanderbilt and its first year coach Dan McGugin. He was the second Auburn player ever selected All-Southern, behind only James Elmer.[4]
