Griffin Fisk was in a scoring zone last week.

Susquehanna’s standout junior guard had back-to-back scoring nights with 30 or more points as the team split its two games.

Fisk totaled 30 points with four 3-pointers in a 58-57 loss in overtime to Wyoming Seminary (3-4), and made 10 of 11 free throws.

In the Lackawanna League Division III opener against rival Montrose, Fisk hit for 31 points with three 3-pointers in a 76-51 win. The Sabers improved to 3-1 overall heading into a nonleague game against Deposit, New York, on Monday. Then the Sabers play in the Susquehanna County Christmas Tournament at Montrose.

This season, Fisk also scored 22 points in a win over Wyalusing Area and 23 in a victory over East Stroudsburg Notre Dame in a game played at Marywood University. He averages 26.5 points per game, which is the top scoring average in Division III, and he ranks second to Riverside’s Nico Antoniacci, who leads the Lackawanna League at 34.7 points per game.

Last season, as a sophomore, Fisk had 314 points and 41 3-pointers.

“He’s played well for us,” Susquehanna coach Lawrence Tompkins said. “He put a lot of time in this offseason in the unseen hours working on his game. I think more than anything, he is a product of our team. We have guys who can do some things.”

Susquehanna has a balance after Fisk at the start of the season.

Mason Keyes averages 12.8 points per game, and Hudson Stengel contributes 12.7 points per game. Fisk averages 2.3 3-pointers per game, while Stengel contributes 1.7 per game.

Last season, Keyes (15.1 ppg) and Fisk (13.7) finished in the top 10 among Division III scorers.

Susquehanna averages 67.5 points per game and gives up 50.3 in its 3-1 start.

“We had a tough year last year with starting younger guys who were forced into playing very early,” Tompkins said. “A lot of these guys are committed to basketball. They have put a lot of time into it during the offseason and are buying into what we are trying to do.

“Our depth is helping. We have a versatile team with guys who can play multiple positions.”

Milestones

Old Forge senior guard Cameron Parker reached 100 career 3-pointers.

The returning All-Region standout had two from beyond the arc as a freshman, 44 in his sophomore season and 49 last season when he led the team to the District 2 Class 2A championship. His eight this season pushes his career total to 103.

Parker also has 783 points in his four seasons.

Abington Heights senior shooting guard Jordan Shaffer has 862 points in his career, averaging 21.3 points per game this season to rank third in the Lackawanna League.

Scranton coach Tony Battaglia reached the 400-win milestone. Now, his son, Tony, is chasing the 1,000-point mark. After his 28 points in his father’s history-making win over North Pocono on Friday night, the senior guard has 852 points.

Coach Battaglia scored 982 points in his career as a sharp-shooting guard at Bishop O’Hara.
