Johnson (Oklahoma City) led his team in scoring last week which included a 20-point performance in a win against Northwestern that tied a career high. Johnson, who is SWOSU’s three-point makes leader this season, was 9-of-21 from the three-point line in two games for the Dawgs.

Zinn (Anadarko, Okla.) was also the women’s leading scorer on the week. She averaged 12 points, 5.0 assists, and 5.5 rebounds and helped lift the Lady Bulldogs to a bounce-back win over Oklahoma Baptist on Saturday after falling to No.  23-ranked Northwestern two days prior. Zinn currently ranks second in the GAC in assists per game and assist-to-turnover ratio.
