EASTERN BASKETBALL LEAGUE - PENNSYLVANIA
11-18, .379, 5th place
After losing their representatives in the Rangers, Reading gained a new club in the league to replace them. The Merchants brought on Dewey Boltz to coach and play. Boltz is the only player from the previous season's Rangers to be asked to join the Merchants.
11-18, .379, 5th place
The Merchants got off to decent start and won their first two games and were a respectable 5-5 after ten games. They would stumble and only win 5ive games over the last two months and missed the playoffs.
