Mike "JJ" Johnson '81

Mike "JJ" Johnson '81

Considered an undersized center, Johnson may have been small in stature, but not in heart. His 6'4 frame played more like 6'8 guarding the opponent's best big men and centers. Loving to draw on his shooting ability and skill from 15 feet, "JJ" was the 4th Monk to surpass the 1,000-point mark. In 1979 and 1980, his sophomore and junior seasons, Johnson was voted to the Western Maine Athletic Conference first team. During his junior season, a time when the Monks consistently competed against scholarship programs throughout New England, Johnson averaged 14.2 points and 6.3 rebounds per game.
