BRONX, N.Y. – After scoring nearly 1,000 points in his two seasons with the Fordham men's basketball team,
Darius Quisenberry has inked a contract to begin his post-collegiate career with Landstede Hammers in the BNXT League, the top professional league in the Netherlands and Belgium.
Â
A Second Team All-Atlantic 10 selection in 2022-23, Quisenberry led Fordham to its finest season in more than three decades, as the Rams went 25-8, tied for second in the final A-10 regular season standings and advanced to the semifinals of the A-10 Tournament for just the second time in program history. He led the team and finished sixth in the Atlantic 10 with 16.9 points per game in addition to dishing out 3.2 dimes per contest. Quisenberry scored 20 or more points on 12 occasions; the Rams went 11-1 in those games.
Â
Quisenberry joined the Rams in 2021-22 and helped Fordham finish with a record of 16-16, the program's first season with a winning percentage of .500 or better in more than five years. His 16.2 points per game led the squad and ranked sixth in the A-10. The Springfield, Ohio, native finished in double figures 22 times in 26 tries with six 20-point outings, including a season-high 36 points against Davidson.
Â
A 2,000-point scorer over his 138-game collegiate tenure, Quisenberry began his career at Youngstown State, where he was a two-time All-Horizon League selection and scored more than 1,200 points in three seasons with the Penguins.
