Patricia L. Roy Mental Attitude Award

At the conclusion of each championship game, members of the IHSAA Executive Committee, along with the Indiana
Fever and Indiana Pacers, will present the Patricia L. Roy Mental Attitude Award to the outstanding senior participant in
each classification of the girls basketball state finals. The recipients of this award, who were nominated by their principals
and coaches, must excel in mental attitude, scholarship, leadership and athletic ability in basketball.
A member of the IHSAA Executive Staff beginning in 1972, Ms. Roy was responsible for girls basketball from the
inception of the tournament series in 1976 until her retirement in June, 1999. Regarded both statewide and nationally as a
pioneer in girls athletics, Patricia served on the IHSAA Executive Staff longer than anyone in the history of the Association.
The Indiana Fever and Indiana Pacers, proud presenting sponsors of the girls and boys basketball basketball state
tournament, will award a $1,000 scholarship to the winner’s school. Since 1989, over $840,000 in college scholarships
have been presented to deserving high school athletes in Indiana, and we thank the Indiana Fever and Indiana Pacers
Patricia L. Roy carrying on that tradition.
