I caught Johnstone in action during the 2026 Iowa Impact Invite. Platform Adidas finished fourth in the event, taking the eventual champion to three sets, and she played an important role in the team’s successful weekend. Johnstone stands out for her versatility on the court. She’s sound in the back row, utilizing lateral quickness and sharp reflexes to dig up balls and deliver usable passes. Johnstone keenly reads the attack and tracks balls well in serve-receive. She’s also a dangerous performer at the net. Lacking the height of a prototypical pin, Johnstone makes up for it with an impressive vertical leap and an ability hang in the air. She brings a heavy swing to the outside, can effectively end points from the middle and convert from the 10-foot line. There are few things Johnstone can’t accomplish in the game, making her an interesting prospect for the next level.
