Significant to the naming of this award, Mickey brought IBJ Media back under local ownership when he and partner Bob Schloss purchased the company back in 1990.

My dad loved basketball. The team he played on at tiny Gill Township High School in Sullivan County won the sectional in 1955, an achievement memorialized with a plaque and trophy displayed at the Merom Community Center. And basketball became a key part of our family’s life.
