Saturday he scored 37 points on 14 of 26 shooting versus Triton and also showed up on the boards grabbing 10 rebounds, and facilitated with 6 assists.

Against Bemidji after a 28 point performance versus Grand Rapids recently where he had 28 points on four 3-pointers he scored 29 points for Duluth Denfeld versus Bemidji including a huge mid-range jumper to force overtime for Denfeld.

Kitila also had a steal and a block showing his athleticism. The steal was while St. Anthony was in a full-court zone press and Kitila made a jump on the ball like a safety in football to catch and steal.

One of my favorite abilities Forrest shows is blocking opponents shots and the way he does it. Forrest showed this good ability blocking a baseline drive from a St. Peter player. Forrest's improvement as a scorer this season is evident and he's been consistent, and a few games earlier he became Chaska's all-time assist leader.</p>   <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2841981' first='Jed' last='Keenan'] - Keenan getting another mention as his stellar 2nd half of the season play continues.
