Lake Gibson senior offensive lineman Baveon Johnson is officially an Under Armour All-American Game participant. The game will be held on Jan. 2 at the Citrus Bowl in Orlando. Johnson, a Florida State commit, was surrounded by family, friends, faculty, coaches and teammates during his jersey ceremony on Tuesday at the Lake Gibson High School cafeteria.
