High Point’s Chase Johnston emerged as a March Madness hero after scoring the game-winning layup in the Panthers’ 83-82 upset over No. 5 Wisconsin, marking his first 2-point shot of the season. Johnston scored 14 points, including crucial 3-pointers that helped narrow Wisconsin’s lead, while Rob Martin led the team with 23 points. A seventh-year senior and prolific 3-point shooter, Johnston, who recently turned 26, has been a key player for High Point since transferring from Florida Gulf Coast.
