Kayden Johnson said she expected a win in DeKalb’s first flag football game.

The senior receiver’s confidence was apparently well deserved in a 42-0 win over Belvidere on Friday.

“I’m not going to lie, I lowkey expected this a little bit. But that’s only because I’m a little cocky sometimes,” Johnson said. “I expected to win, but at the same time the adrenaline was kicking so a little scared. ‘Oh I don’t know, these girls might be good but then they might not. I’m just going to see.’ So we went on the field, did everything we’ve practiced and we did that. 42-0. I’m really proud of our team.”
