Expert Analysis
Austin Kingsley | Prep Dig Scout
Premier Nebraska 17 Black reinvented itself at the setter spot this spring, and Johnson has been a major beneficiary. She has climbed the ladder to help guide the team’s dynamic two-setter system. Prior seasons have revealed Johnson’s willingness to pilot a 5-1 and square up against opposing left-side attackers. That skill set persists, but Johnson can also adapt to whatever lineup 17 Black deploys. Versatility will remain a storyline as Johnson’s squad prepares for the 17 Freedom race in Indianapolis.

Johnson has been on our radar since her early days at the 15s level. She is a true “glue” player for Premier Nebraska 16 Red who can play a dual setter-opposite role for the team. Johnson’s length and reach make her a worthy choice to play along the net, even if she’s simply setting a 5-1 offense.

This is a great chance to catch up with Johnson, an unquestioned leader in the Premier Nebraska 16 Red frontcourt. We have fond memories of Johnson’s prior reps as a setter-opposite hybrid. Her high-impact attacking reached a new level in Omaha, where 16 Red constantly leaned on Johnson to produce key side-outs. Premier Nebraska and Papio South have built dynasties behind versatile athletes like Johnson.
