Former Ladies Professional Bowlers Tour bowler Liz Johnson made history for the second time when she qualified for the final spot in this week's PBA Banquet Open in Michigan. Johnson fired a 237 in her final game to pick up the fourth and final spot.

Johnson qualified as an amateur in 2004, then decided to join the PBA. She rolled a 237 in her final game to clinch the 64th and final spot, one pin ahead of Chris Hayden. Jeff Carter was first, followed by ESPN color commentator Randy Pedersen and Mike Mineman.

Johnson was a member of the LPBT, but the organization folded. There is currently no women's professional bowling league. She was also a former member of Team USA.

Official release dates have yet to be announced.

If you are a right-hander and are leaving the four-pin quite a bit, here is a tip that might help you carry the pesky pin.Simply move your feet one board to the left on the approach and maintain the same strike target out on the lane. This might produce the desired result, but if you leave a ten-pin after that move, another adjustment could be necessary.If you leave the ten-pin, try keeping your setup and mark the same, but look at a spot a little closer to the foul line. This will get your ball into an earlier roll, thus changing your entry angle into the pocket and, hopefully, carry the ten-pin.

A salute goes to Bill "Buffy" Cress for rolling a 300 game in the Imperial League at Sherwood Lanes Monday night. Cress rolled the perfecto in the first game of the night, and started with a double in the second, which is 14 strikes in-a-row.
