Kolton Alan Kohl (born May 6, 1998) is an American basketball player. He played college basketball for the Abilene Christian Wildcats.

High school career

[edit]

Kohl attended Central High School in San Angelo, Texas.[1] He grew six inches (0.15 m) in his final three years of high school.[2] Kohl was a First Team All-District 3-6A selection and district Defensive MVP.[3]

College career

[edit]

Prior to his first season at Abilene Christian, Kohl suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during a summer workout. Following surgery, he developed a bacterial blood infection in his knee. He recovered after three months, losing about 20 lbs (9.1 kg) during that time, and was granted a redshirt. In his first two years, Kohl received limited playing time, before entering the starting lineup in his junior season.[4] As a junior, he averaged 9.6 points and 4.3 rebounds per game.[5] In his senior season, Kohl earned First Team All-Southland honors and led his team to a 2021 Southland tournament title, being named to the All-Tournament Team.[6] In the first round of the 2021 NCAA tournament, he helped 14th-seeded Abilene Christian achieve a 53–52 win over third-seeded Texas.[7]
