Lindsi's Johnson is a junior at Kentlake High School.
She and her Kentlake Falcons just spent 4 days at the Tacoma dome playing
baketball in the 4A state tournament. After all was said and done, they
came home with the 5th place trophy. They opened with a tough loss
against #1 ranked Garfield. In game 2, they found themselves down 15
points and on the verge of elimination against #2 Meadowdale. Lindsi
helped her team stage a
miraculous
comeback to defeat the defending 3A state champions 39-37.
Because of her efforts she was recognized as one of South County's
best prep
athletes of the week. In game 3, the Falcons again quickly found
themselves down by double digits. This time it was Lindsi's friend and
teammate Luv
Rattler who rallied the Falcons for the big win. Finally, game 4 was
against Redmond. In a hard fought battle, the Falcons
prevailed
against the Mustangs 38-35 and earned the 5th place tournament trophy.
