Jayce Johnson, a 6-foot-11 senior center at Santa Monica, has checked out of school and intends to enroll at a college next semester, Coach James Hecht said.
Johnson is going to finish his high school classes at a charter school, Hecht said. California, Utah and Colorado have been recruiting him.
“I think he felt like he was ready to be in college,” Hecht said.
Johnson played for Santa Monica last season. He previously was at JSerra, Mater Dei and Findlay Prep.
