Gophers land commitment from Prior Lake offensive lineman Greg Johnson
Johnson is the seventh player from the Class of 2023 to commit to the Gophers and the second from Prior Lake.
Johnson is a three-star recruit and the fifth-ranked recruit from Minnesota in the Class of 2023 by 247Sports. He also had offers from Iowa State, Air Force, Wyoming and Northern Iowa, among others. He is teammates at Prior Lake with Martin Owusu, a defensive lineman who committed to the Gophers last week.
The Gophers have seven commitments for 2023, including four from Minnesota — Johnson, Owusu, Reese Tripp (Kasson-Mantorville) and Jerome Williams (Osseo).
A 16-0 run and Annika Stewart’s three-pointer cut the lead to three with 20 seconds remaining, but the No. 8 Terrapins held off the No. 24 Gophers at the free-throw line from there for a 99-92 victory.
