``She won it,'' Johnson said. ``Ooh! What saves!'' Janke said she knew it was her day. She felt good in warmups and knew several Westlake players from her club team, so she knew their tendencies and was able to communicate them to her defense. ``It's always fun to have a game like this,'' Janke said. ``I've never had one like this in high school before, when you feel like you did your best.''
