Lee Lafayette Patton (April 3, 1904 – March 8, 1950) was a highly successful coach from his start in Ash Fork, Arizona in 1927 until his untimely death in 1950. In between, he became a revered figure in Princeton, West Virginia as a teacher, coach and community leader. Patton then served as head basketball coach at West Virginia University from 1946 to 1950. There, he is credited for launching WVU's Golden Age of Basketball. His 77.8% win loss record at WVU is exceeded by just one coach, and his record of 57 successive home wins remains unbroken. No coach has coached more basketball players who are in the WVU Sports Hall of Fame than Lee Patton.
