Ron Johnson joined the Hall of Honor in 2026. He was presented for induction by his friend an former teammate, Shawn Farmer. 

Farmer presented Johnson as the consummate "we" guy who embraced the role of defensive midfielder and played a critical role in helping Eastern Lacrosse to its first two conference championships.

The Carlsbad, Calif. native scored twice and forced a pair of turnovers in Eastern’s 12-11 overtime win over Widener in the 2012 MAC Championship game. He finished his career with 27 goals, 22 assists, 149 ground balls, and 53 caused turnovers. Johnson earned first-team all-league honors in each of his final three seasons and was a USILA Honorable Mention All-American in 2013. Eastern went 49-16 in his four seasons. He joins former teammates Aaron Benz ‘13 and Grant Ferguson ‘15 in the Hall of Honor.
