IHSAA Boys Track & Field
Robert S. Hinshaw Mental Attitude
Award Recipients
Through 2003-04
At the
conclusion of the state finals, the IHSAA Executive Committee presents an award
for mental attitude to an outstanding senior participant in the boys track and field state tournament. The recipient of this
award, who was nominated by his principal and coach, must excel in mental
attitude, scholarship, leadership and athletic ability in track and field. The
boys track and field mental attitude award is named in honor of the late Robert
S. Hinshaw who gave unselfishly to the boys high
school track program in Indiana as a participant, coach and as the IHSAA's first assistant commissioner from 1945-61. Farm
Bureau Insurance, the IHSAA corporate partner, presents a $1,000 scholarship to
the school in the name of the recipient.
