Johnson’s heroics came at the seven minute mark. Wesley had trailed for the entire second half until Johnson exploded for a put back basket and a pair of threes in a sixty second span. Daniel Henry chipped in 14 points, and Cody White picked up 10 rebounds including eight on the offensive end to help pace the Wolverines to the win. Eastern’s Lenny DiMaria scored 18 second half points on the way to a 25 point night.
Eastern, which shot 56% from the floor on the evening, had a chance to tie in the last five seconds when a good look from three rimmed out.
