Background

Kelli Johnson is a native of Moscow, Idaho. Both of her parents were coaches (baseball and gymnastics) and physical education teachers.

Kelli played point guard for the Moscow High School girl's basketball team. During that time, the team had a three-year winning streak, where they won three consecutive state titles. The Moscow-Pullman Daily News named her State A-2 Most Valuable Player for her senior year.

In 1994, she continued her basketball career immediately, as a freshman in her home town, at the University of Idaho as a shooting guard for the Idaho Vandals women's basketball team. She started all 110 games of her career, which were the third most in school history. As a junior, she set the record for the most three-point field goals in a game (seven) against the University of North Texas. That season, she also broke the career 3-point school record. By the end of her college career, Kelli had made 207 3-pointers - 81 more than the nearest contender. These records stood for 19 and 17 years, respectively.

Kelli graduated in 1998 from Idaho with a degree in Broadcast Journalism.

She joined her father in the Idaho Vandals Hall of Fame in 2016.

Then, in 2003, Kelli joined Comcast SportsNet Mid-Atlantic, covering the Baltimore Orioles and, then, the Washington Redskins and Washington Nationals.

After nine years there, she moved on to Comcast SportsNet Houston as a sports anchor for SportsNet Central. And two years later, went to Comcast SportsNet Bay Area in San Francisco.
