Janky made a long dash with the ball, beat a pair of defenders and outmaneuvered the West Salem goalkeeper to put the Black Tornado ahead for good. Michala Denn headed in a corner kick by Sarah Thomas in the eighth minute for North, which advanced to the 2014 state finals after edging the Titans in a penalty-kick shootout. Tualatin won the 6A crown last fall, beating the Tornado, 2-0. On Friday, West Salem evened the score at 1 in the 32nd minute. Savannah Bumgardner scored from 12 yards out after solid passes by Janky and Rylee Karrick to give North (2-0-1) its 3-1 lead in the 60th minute. The Tornado's backline of Meghan Cowan, Sarah Thomas, Denn and freshman Mileka Hagerman was strong, head coach Jeff Thomas said. "They are the foundation of the team," he said. Brinley O'Neill and Melissa Tonkin shared duties in-goal against West Salem (3-1).
