West Scranton Invaders

Dallas High School opened their 2025 baseball season in commanding fashion with an 11-1 win over West Scranton on Tuesday afternoon. The Mountaineers wasted no time getting on the board, putting up six runs in the first inning and never looking back.

This past weekend, three local athletes showcased their exceptional talents on national and collegiate stages. Senior thrower Tommy Fiorelli earned a silver medal in the shot put at the Adidas Indoor Nationals, demonstrating remarkable dedication and skill. Mid-Valley High School alumna and Villanova University sophomore, Maranda Runco, played a pivotal role in the Wildcats’ 12-3 victory over Georgetown University, contributing both offensively with a home run and defensively by closing the game as a pitcher. Additionally, former West Scranton High School hurdler, Colin Manley, began his outdoor track season with a commendable performance for East Stroudsburg University, finishing second in his heat and tenth overall in the hurdles event. These achievements highlight the athletes’ commitment and the supportive sports community that has fostered their growth.

Upon arriving at the collegiate level, Merrifield wasted no time establishing himself as a versatile and reliable guard. Over the years, he has been a consistent force on both ends of the floor, earning recognition for his scoring ability, passing, and leadership.
