Johnson makes varsity debut as Linn-Mar hosts Kennedy
Linn-Mar senior Curt Johnson, who played catcher and pitcher for the baseball Lions, will start on the basketball floor against Kennedy after years away from organized hoops. Johnson averages 10.8 points and 5.6 rebounds as a key bench option, with coach Bob Landis praising his work ethic and versatility. Kennedy owns an 8-6 series edge since 1975, and the game sets the stage for a likely district tournament preview and a Valley Conference showdown.
