Johnson, who had totaled only seven points in her prior two appearances, rediscovered her stroke last week. The rookie, who bumped her season scoring average to 13.9 points per contest, poured in 40 points over 63 minutes of action while accounting for a 10-of-18 clip from beyond the arc. Johnson averaged 20.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 3.0 steals per outing as the Blackbirds split a pair of close decisions. She sank eight triples en-route to a game-high 27 points in a 73-70 overtime setback at Atlantic 10 member George Mason. Johnson scored in double digits again as the Blackbirds posted a home win over Patriot League member Lehigh three days later. The 5-foot-10 freshman, who hit a trio of free throws during the game's final 44 seconds, finished with 13 points, three rebounds and three steals in 29 minutes. Johnson has scored at least 12 points in six of nine games.
