1948-49 Sheboygan Dick's (WSBL)

 1948-49 SHEBOYGAN DICK'S 

WISCONSIN STATE BASKETBALL LEAGUE

1st Half: 4-8, .333, 5th place

2nd Half: 1-10, .091, 7th place

With a revamped team, Sheboygan hoped for better fortune. Unfortunately it was not meant to be. After an opening victory, they lost four straight before an improvement. However, after fighting back to a 4-5 record, they lost 11 in a row, stretching across the end of the first half and the first 8 games of the second half. They finished the second half in last place.

Fred Bauer

Oddly enough, Sheboygan had the identical record in both halves of the season as they had in the 1947-48 campaign. Following this dismal season, they dropped from the league.
