As the Cougars try to repeat as Class 2-A state champions, underclassmen are playing key roles. But Johnston is among the seniors on the roster.

Last week, the Cougars won three matches. They took down Providence Grove in a sweep and then won a five-set match against Randleman to capture the Piedmont Athletic Conference Tournament. 

Then on Saturday, the Cougars won against East Surry in the first round of the state playoffs.

Johnston is a setter and outside hitter.
