Albury's Rising Star winner Isaac McGrath moving to Adelaide

Speedy teenager Isaac McGrath is set to attend university in Adelaide next year.

"I got into a Bachelor of Science and Masters of Teaching degree over at the University of South Australia," he said.

McGrath played two games last year while a student at North Albury's Xavier High School, but became a permanent fixture.

He missed only the one game and was named in the club's best eight times during the 20 matches, which ended after the club bowed out in straight sets.

"I really enjoyed it, (winning a) bit more respect from the senior players," he suggested.

"It was good to have a relationship with the senior coaches in Luke Daly and Anthony Miles."
