YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY-TV) — In Thursday night’s home game against Kofa, Cibola girls basketball senior Myna Johnson found herself 19 points from 1,000 points in her high school career. From kickoff, Johnson showed why she’s one of Yuma’s best. She played basketball selflessly and let the game come to her. Instead of forcing shots, she passed open teammates and racked up four assists. She played a tough defense and racked up five steals. She also did most of her recordings.

Johnson scored 16 points in the opening quarter and had on free throws, layups, long jumps and putts. Johnson scored 20 points before halftime en route to a 71-14 win over Kofa. Johnson’s 20 points put her above the 1,000 point mark for her career with 1,001. The win was also the 20th of the season for the 9th-ranked Lady Raiders in the AIA Class 6A. Cibola will complete its home game schedule on February 1 against San Luis before ending the regular season of back-to-back road games next week.
