The NIU career leader in both total blocks and matches played, Amy Foulke was a central figure in the success of the Huskie volleyball program in the early 1990s. During her four seasons at NIU, Foulke and the Huskies made three postseason appearances, including the 1993 NCAA Tournament, while winning 115 matches. 

Foulke led the Huskies in blocks for four consecutive seasons, finishing her outstanding career with 550 total blocks, tops in school history, along with 145 solo blocks, which also ranks number one in program history. More than just a blocker, Foulke also ranks 15th in Huskie history in career kills with 1,262 and ninth with 138 service aces. 

A two-time first team all-conference honoree, Foulke was recognized by the North Star Conference in 1991 and the Mid-Continent Conference in 1993. She was also named the Mid-Continent Conference's Tournament MVP in 1992 and to the all-tournament team in 1993. In addition to her conference accolades, Foulke was invited to the United State Olympic Festival in both 1993 and 1994. 

Foulke helped the Huskies win a school record 33 matches as a junior in 1992, reaching the semifinals of the National Invitational Volleyball Championship. During her senior season, Foulke and the Huskies won 29 matches and reached the NCAA Tournament for the first time in program history, defeating Illinois State, 3-0, in the first round.
