The University of Southern Indiana Softball junior second baseman Claire Johnson (Pittsboro, Indiana) was named to the Google Cloud Academic All-District IV team in a vote by the sports information directors in the NCAA Division II Midwest Region.

Johnson, who advances onto the Academic All-America ballot, is earning Academic All-District accolades for the first time in her career after compiling a 3.85 grade point average in exercise science and kinesiology.

On the field, Johnson is currently hitting .315 with six doubles, seven triples, four home runs and 21 RBIs. She has helped lead the Screaming Eagles to a 32-22 overall record and to their first Great Lakes Valley Conference Tournament crown since 1998.

USI is scheduled to play Hillsdale College today in the second round of the NCAA Division II Midwest Region #1 Tournament Friday in Allendale, Michigan. The start of the game is currently delayed due to rain.
