Share

Senior point guard Gary Johnson’s 30 points against Arizona were the most by a Trojan since Rodrick Rhodes scored 32 against Washington on March 8, 1997.

Johnson’s previous high was 18 against Nevada Las Vegas on Dec. 2.

Johnson made nine of 16 shots from the floor and four of nine three-point shots.

The nine baskets and 40 minutes he played set personal highs. He also tied his best assist total with eight.
