TACOMA, Wash. (AP) -- Erika Johnson scored 19 points and grabbed a game-high 12 rebounds to lead Seattle's Holy Names to a 60-33 first-round win over Yelm Wednesday at the Class 3A girls basketball tournament.

The 6-foot-1 junior was 9 of 12 from the field to lead the Cougars (24-2). Her 12 rebounds helped Holy Names to a 57-26 advantage on the boards, which gave the Cougars 21 more field-goal attempts.

Sophie Reichelt and Jasmine McCleave scored 11 each. McCleave also pulled down nine rebounds. Holy Names never trailed, jumping to a 26-7 lead after one quarter.

The Tornados (18-8) shot just 25 percent from the field (11 of 44) and turned the ball over 22 times. Katelyn Smith was the only Yelm player in double-figures with 10 points but she was just 2 of 9 from the field.
