Colgate’s Resilient Guard with High-Intensity Defense and State-Championship DNA
Blake Forrest, a 5'11" sophomore guard for the Colgate Raiders, brings elite defensive intensity and a proven winner’s mindset from his 4A State Championship high school run (17 pts, 6 rebs, 4 steals in title game). Though his 2024–25 stats were modest (1.9 ppg, 31.7% FG), he’s a high-effort differentiator who missed most of 2025–26 due to injury but returned with renewed focus. His 4 steals/game average in high school and 9.0 mpg at Colgate signal relentless perimeter pressure. For teams needing a gritty, intelligent guard who thrives in chaos and elevates teammates, Forrest is a strong fit—especially if you value defense, hustle, and championship pedigree over raw scoring.
