Just a junior last year, he led the Hilltoppers in points, averaging over 32 a game with 899 on the season. In rebounds, Johnson averaged nearly 17 a game.

Additionally, UWS track and field has signed International Falls’ Keira Hesseldahl.

Her older sister, Summer, was a freshman with the Yellowjackets this season.
