In 1954, Roberston's sophomore season, his squad was defeated at the state quarter-finals by the Milan High team that was immortalized in the movie, Hoosiers. The following season, Crispus Attucks went 31-1 to win the State Championship, and they repeated the feat in 1956, becoming the first school ever to finish with a perfect record at 31-0. Robertson earned the prestigious "Mr. Basketball" title that season, propelling him into a collegiate career at the University of Cincinnati and eventual NBA fame. This size 11.5 ring is in NM condition with "O.R" is engraved inside the ring, and also stamped inside is the maker "Dyer Indpls." and "10K."
