Tony Patterson grew up in small-town southern Indiana studying Indiana high school basketball — a self-proclaimed “junkie.” It was literally his life, he said.
In a small community like Lyons, Patterson said there’s not much other than basketball.
And now, a letter that Patterson, a law partner at Parr Richey Obremskey Frandsen & Patterson, received on Nov. 20 cements his place in the basketball history he so idolized as a child.
Patterson, of 1985 L&M; High School basketball fame, has been named to the 2010 Silver Anniversary Team by the Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame.
