Coach Barry Johnson 

Coach Johnson is in his 8th season as a Varsity Head Basketball Coach. 2009-2010 being his inaugural season as head coach at LW. Prior to LW coach Johnson was the head coach at Lindbergh High School in Renton, WA. Coach Johnson led the Lindbergh Eagles to 5 district tournaments in his 7 seasons. In 2004 his Lindbergh team lead the 3A in points per game. Coach Johnson looks to install an up-tempo game and continue to focus on the defensive end for his new LW team.

 

Coach grew up in the Rose Hill area attending Rose Hill Elementary, Rose Hill Jr. High and then on to Redmond high school. As a graduate of Redmond High School and being a part of the great Redmond basketball program, Coach learned a lot about being tough, a team player and what it takes to be the best. He is going to pass all of his knowledge down to everyone in the Kang program. He credits his mental toughness and defensive approach to his former High School coach Jerry Koester. Redmond won back to back state championships in 1988 and 1989. Coach was a part of the 1989 team and in 1991 his senior year, his team was the runner up in the state championship game.

Varsity Assistant Coach

J.V. Head Coach

Coach Lee Johnson 

It’s funny how the street leading up to the front on LW is named Lee Johnson. Don’t be confused, this is not the same Lee Johnson.  

 

Lee Johnson comes to LW with his son Barry Johnson. Lee has been the JV coach at Lindbergh for the past 4 years. Lee is very good teaching the young men and getting them ready for the Varsity team. Lee is a true basketball junkie you will see him at every game from our youngest select teams all the way up to our Varsity team. Coach Lee is very excited to be a part of the LW family and getting to continuing to coach under his son.
