Johnson High’s Lejavian Ratliff, right, blocks a shot by Northwest Whitfield’s Sarah Thomas during their class AAAA state tournament first round match at the Johnson High gymnasium Wednesday evening.
Johnson’s season ended Wednesday — one win short of the Lady Knights’ final goal — as visiting Northwest Whitfield knocked off the Lady Knights, 25-15, 29-27, 25-14 with an impressive showing in the first round of the Class AAAA state tournament. “We accomplished two of our three goals,” Johnson coach Deb Eidson said. “The only one we didn’t accomplish was to win at least one match at state.”
