MINNEAPOLIS(AP) -- Damian Johnson had 16 points, 10 rebounds and
seven steals to lead No. 25 Minnesota to a 114-47 win over
Minnesota Duluth in an exhibition game Thursday night.

Lawrence Westbrook, the other senior in Minnesota's starting
lineup, scored 19 points.

With suspended newcomers Trevor Mbakwe and Royce White watching
in shirts and ties, the Gophers missed some muscle inside but
that didn't matter. The Bulldogs made just one trip to the
free-throw line.

One touted recruit who did play for Minnesota was Rodney
Williams, who had eight points, two steals and one soaring dunk
over the final five minutes of the first half. The student
section even started chanting his name.

Ryan Rasmussen scored 12 points for Minnesota Duluth, which went
10 for 25 from 3-point range. The Division II program returns
three starters and its top five reserves from last season's
20-11 team.
