Girls state basketball: Championship game scores, all-tournament teams
POWERED BY CARL’S AUTO GROUP. THE DOWLING AND JOHNSON GIRLS HAVE BEEN ON A COLLISION COURSE ALL SEASON, AND IT CAME DOWN TO ONE FINAL NIGHT IN AN AWESOME ENVIRONMENT AT WELLS FARGO ARENA. THE LOWER LEVEL OF SEATS COMPLETELY FILLED UP. THEY HAD TO OPEN UP THE UPPER LEVEL TO GET MORE FANS IN. JOHNSON, LOOKING TO CAP OFF A SECOND STRAIGHT UNDEFEATED SEASON. DOWLING ONLY LOST BY TWO TO JOHNSON EARLIER THIS YEAR. MADDIE JENKINS HEADED TO VIRGINIA TECH WAS AWESOME. 18 REBOUNDS AND SIX POINTS. IT WAS 1210 AFTER THE FIRST QUARTER. THE LEAD WENT BACK AND FORTH. THERE’S KATIE MOELLER WITH A NICE BUCKET. SECOND QUARTER WAS A TIE GAME. CREIGHTON BOUND AVA ZEDIKER SHOWING OFF THE SKILLS. SHE HAD 20 POINTS. DOWLING LED AT THE HALF 20 TO 19. THIRD QUARTER JOHNSTON CAME OUT ON FIRE. JENNA LEWIS TWO OF HER 12 POINTS. IT WAS A 12 ZERO RUN TO TURN THE GAME. FRESHMAN KELLY COBB. YES, FRESHMAN HAD 13 POINTS. THEY LED BY EIGHT AFTER THAT STEAL AND SCORE. AND THE IN WASN’T REALLY CLOSE. JOHNSTON WINS 5544. THE DRAGONS CLAIM THE TROPHY AGAIN. ALMIGHTY JENKINS, YOU’RE A CAPTAIN OF THE ALL TOURNAMENT TEAM AND LISTENED TO THEIR RECORD OVER THE LAST THREE SEASONS. 102 AND TWO THREE STATE TITLES IN THE PAST FOUR YEARS. EACH OF THOSE SEASONS 26 AND ZERO. COACH CHAD JILEK HIS 50TH BIRTHDAY. WHAT A NIGHT. I THINK THEY DO FEEL A LITTLE BIT OF PRESSURE, AND I THINK IT WAS JUST THAT JOY OF, YOU KNOW, A COUPLE OF THINGS, YOU KNOW, REPEATING THEY WANTED TO WIN FOR ME ON MY BIRTHDAY. WE’VE BEEN PLAYING ALL YEAR FOR AMANA SISTER, BROOKLYN. DEFINITELY A SURREAL FEELING. YOU NEVER WOULD HAVE THOUGHT WE WOULD HAVE DONE IT TWICE. AND LOOK WHAT HAPPENED. WE WENT BACK TO BACK. IT’S IT’S INSANE. WE ALL WANTED TO DO IT FOR EACH OTHER. I THINK THAT’S WHAT’S SO SPECIAL IS THAT WE ALL HAD SO MUCH FUN, AND WE JUST DID IT FOR EACH OTHER. AND I’M JUST SO HAPPY FOR US. AND A LITTLE EMOTIONAL THAT IMANI IS LEAVING ME THE PULLMANS. BUT
