Perfect record still intact, the Johnson boys will go for the Region 8-AAAA championship tonight in Oakwood. It wouldn’t have played out so favorably for the second-ranked Knights had it not been a third quarter that was crisp on both the offensive and defensive end Friday against North Hall in the tournament semifinals. Despite a double-digit lead early, Johnson (26-0) trailed much of the second quarter before rallying to win 68-59.
