1948-49 Hartford Hurricanes (ABL)

1948-49 HARTFORD HURRICANES
AMERICAN BASKETBALL LEAGUE (II)
13-26 .333, 6th place

In their first full-season in the ABL, Hartford had a disappointing season, going 8-21 after a decent 5-5 start. The addition of Johnny Bach and Frank Bores late in the season added some punch to the offense, but the team still failed to win.
