(Richmond, Ind.) - A former Oldenburg Academy basketball star has hit a significant career mark at IU East. 

Jake Johnson recorded his 1,000th career point in a 91-78 loss at Shawnee Park last Tuesday. 

Johnson, a sophomore, led the Red Wolves with a game-high 26 points. 

His 1,015 career points at the collegiate level have been spread across two programs. Johnson played his first year at Bethel University before landing at IU East.
