Kenosha Indian Trail (4-2) vs. Westosha Central (5-1) (Carthage College)

Currently atop the Southeast conference, KIT has been a little up and down this season, but perfect in league play. Junior forward M.J. Stackhouse M.J. Stackhouse 6'7" | PF Kenosha Indian Trail | 2024 State WI will be a handful to contain. The long, bouncy big man enters Tuesday averaging 24 points per game.
