Powers-Johnson did not allow a sack over three seasons with the Ducks and led all FBS centers with a 90.6 pass blocking grade from Pro Football Focus in 2023. He was also named a First Team All-American by Associated Press his junior season.

A native of Draper, Utah, Powers-Johnson attended Corner Canyon High School, where he helped the team to three-straight state championships and a 51-1 record over four years. Powers-Johnson earned MaxPreps first-team All-Utah honors following his senior season after leading the team to a 14-0 record, a 6A state football championship and a No. 8 finish in the MaxPreps Top 25 High School Football Rankings. He was named a four-star recruit by 247Sports.com, Rivals.com and ESPN.com.
