1939-40 BRIDGEPORT SPRINGWOODS
CONNECTICUT STATE BASKETBALL LEAGUE
1st Half: 5-3, .625, t-3rd place
2nd Half: 6-2, .750, t-1st place
Lost in Round Robin 2nd Half Tie-breaker
Looking to improve on the last season, under new coach Eddie Reilly, the Springwoods dropped their first two games before winning five of the last six games to finish in third place in the first half. They played better in the second half of the season, finishing in a three-way tie for first. Sadly, they would lose in the round-robin tie-breaker and their season would end without the championship
