Column: Kai Johnson excels in the no-spin zone

Mark Kessler, assistant track coach and head flag football coach at Glacier High, feels senior athlete Kai Johnson is ahead of her time.

Ten years in the future, he said, colleges would be lining up dozens deep to recruit someone with her talent. “She can throw the ball 65 yards,” he said.

Johnson, the defending State AA girls shot put champion, is taking her talents to the University of Montana track and field program.
