Souhegan Grad Makes American Idol's Top 10

Mont Vernon's Alex Preston is now guaranteed a spot on this summer's American Idol tour.

Souhegan High graduate Alex Preston survived another week on American Idol, making it through Thursday night's elimination vote. 

The 20-year-old Mont Vernon native has now made it to the Top 10, meaning he is guaranteed a spot on this summer's American Idol tour.

Preston's performance of "Falling Slowly" from the movie "Once" on Wednesday night's show received rave reviews from the judges, and apparently the American public agreed.

Preston will get his next chance to impress on Wednesday, March 19 at 8 p.m. on Fox.
