Palisadian Kai Forbath had a season to remember at Sherman Oaks Notre Dame High last season. As the placekicker and punter for the Knights’ varsity football team, Forbath made 19 of his 21 field goal attempts (the longest being 52 yards) and was a perfect 73-for-73 on extra-point kicks on his way to breaking the state record for points in a season by a kicker with 130. The Palisades Highlands resident played an integral role in Notre Dame’s third consecutive CIF Southern Section Division III title. Forbath begins his senior year Friday night in the Knights’ season opener versus Birmingham. His efforts earned him numerous honors as a junior, including first team All-CIF, first team All-State, Los Angeles Times First Team, EA Sports First Team. In addition, he made the Reebok National Team and Sport Illustrated’s Pre-Season Team. Forbath has already been offered full-ride scholarships to eight Division I schools, including UCLA, California, and Notre Dame. But Forbath’s immediate goal is to help Notre Dame to another CIF championship.
