Recap
Bridgeport took the first half honors of the Interstate Basketball League, but then was ousted along with two other Connecticut teams by the New York area teams who refused to travel outside the metropolitan New York area. The players on the strong Bridgeport squad, including stars Johnny Beckman, Joe Dreyfus, and Eddie White, were parceled out to the three new metropolitan area clubs for the second half of the season, but were reunited at the conclusion of the season to play in the championship series. Despite the convoluted season, the Bridgeport five were impressive in the playoffs and defeated second half champion Paterson in two straight games to take the title.
