Averaging 15 points and 10 rebounds per game, Johnson has impressed Coach Harried with the steady progress he has made in rounding out his game.
"He can really shoot the ball, but he is beginning to score more by attacking the basket and posting up," said Coach Harried. "He is becoming more than just a shooter. He is beginning to defend and has really rebounded well for us.
"If he goes to the right school that is a good fit for him, he is going to have a solid college career."
