Syracuse Centennials History
The Syracuse Centennials, based in Syracuse, New York, played in the Eastern Basketball Association in 1976-77. They were one of two new clubs that year, along with the Hartford Downtowners, in a seven-team league.
Bob Harrison coached the team. Records show a final mark of 8-9 across 17 games, seventh in the league, before the club folded mid-season. The Scranton Apollos won the league title that year.
Little else survives about the team. Its short run makes it one of the quickest exits in the league's history.
