Andy Johnson would not allow himself to play the role of savant. Even though the North Central volleyball coach knew, in his heart of hearts, that his Lady Knights’ opponent in Monday’s AA Upper State title match was, in all likelihood, going to be St. Joseph’s, Johnson was not ready to declare the Greenville power a winner over Region 1 foe Greer Middle College before he received the official result. All along, however, anybody who has followed volleyball knew St. Joseph’s would be Boonetown-bound on Monday.
