Central Catholic's Kailee Johnson celebrates a basket during Thursday's 55-50 win over Westview at the Rose Garden.
Central Catholic's Kailee Johnson came prepared for her monumental task against Westview in the quarterfinals of the OSAA Class 6A girls basketball tournament at the Rose Garden.
Top-ranked Central Catholic (24-3) turned back the No. 4 Wildcats 55-50 to advance to the semifinals for the second year in a row and sixth time since 2005. The Rams continue the pursuit of their first title at 1:30 p.m. Friday against Oregon City.
The Stanford-bound Johnson was sensational Thursday, collecting 17 points, 18 rebounds and six blocked shots. She played very, very good defense. She locked down a great player. She played through all the fatigue, she played through all the wrestling they did down low."
