This season, the women’s basketball team will feature five seniors. The past two years, the senior classes only included two players, but now, veteran leadership will be a major part of a team looking to bounce back from a 16-16 record last season.
Barbara Johnson is one of the five following a transfer from Ole Miss. Before her time in Mississippi, she played at Chipola College, averaging 11.8 points on 43 percent shooting. In her last year at Chipola, she was First Team All-Conference. Coming out of high school in 2013, ESPN rated her as a four-star prospect, naming her the 95th best player in her class.
