Kayden Johnson is Brevard’s breakout two-way force at forward
In the 2025-26 season, Kayden Johnson has emerged as a high-impact sophomore for Brevard, earning USA South Defensive Player of the Year after leading the conference with 37 blocks and also averaging 11.2 points and 6.3 rebounds per game[7]. She’s not just a stat-sheet hunter: she’s a physical 5'10" forward who brings rim protection, rebounding, and efficient scoring, with recent bursts like a 21-point, 13-rebound postseason performance[9] and a 19-point, 15-rebound breakout against Meredith[13].
