The Norfolk, VA native earned the honor following a great week in the Charleston Classic. Johnson led the Gators’ charge which cumminated in the Tournament Championship.

The sophomore finished with a double-double (22 points, 12 rebounds) against St. Joseph’s in the Classic’s opening round and posted 12 points and 7 boards against Miami in the semifinals.

Johnson led the Gators in the championship game with 15 points and 5 rebounds and was named the tournament’s Most Valuable Player.
