BALTIMORE BIG MAN, Eddie Johnson passed away today at the age of 61.
Eddie was a force in the middle for his 4 years of play scoring just short of 1000 points (950) and raking in 578 rebounds! He was an integral part of 2 Xavier NCAA participant teams and scored a total of 22 points in his 2 games. Eddie was the ultimate enforcer and Bob Staak then Peter Gillen used him effectively. No player wanted to enter the paint where Eddie roamed.
Eddie was a long term Police Officer back in his hometown of Baltimore and had a beautiful family plus still kept tabs on Xavier and his Muskie teammates.
RIP #55. Thanks for the effort and memories.

RIP Eddie! One of the building blocks in the rise of XU basketball. 61 is way too young.
