MacGregor Sports Inc., the bankrupt sports equipment manufacturer, put more than $2.2 million of equipment up for auction. The sale at MacGregor's three plants in Wisconsin was forced by the First Wisconsin Bank of Sheboygan, which foreclosed on MacGregor, saying that it owed more than $4.5 million. MacGregor once made uniforms for the National Basketball Association and sold a wide range of sports equipment. The company, whose sales fell to $40 million in 1989 from $60 million in 1986, shut most of its Wisconsin operations after seeking protection from creditors under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code earlier this year. MacGregor has been plagued by financial difficulties since 1989.
