Adam Johnson continued to have his way with the OUA opposition and the Lakehead Thunderwolves are division champions again.

Johnson scored 23 points and the Brock Badgers all but laid over and played dead on Saturday night, falling 90-46 to the No. 2-ranked Thunderwolves.

Venzal Russell had 16 and Matt Schmidt collected 11 for the Wolves (18-2), who clinched top spot in the OUA West with the win, assuring they won't have to tangle with No. 1 Carleton until the Final Four final. Laurier helped the cause, falling 77-69 to Windsor.

Michael Williams was the lone Badgers player to hit double digits, counting for 16.

The Wolves will take on Guelph next weekend at the Thunderdome to wrap up regular-season play. LU has earned a first-round playoff bye and will open the 2012 playoffs at home on Feb. 25.
