Johnson earns her second weekly nod of the season after placing second overall at last weekend's Illini Spring Invitational.  The Hoosier senior, who was the highest Big Ten finisher out of four league schools, recorded a 3-over par 147 (75-72) during the 36-hole event and finished just one stroke behind the tournament's medalist, Cathryn Bristow of Oregon.  Johnson began the event's second day in a tie for fourth overall, but shot even par on Saturday, which marked the third time over her last five rounds she posted a round of par or better. The second-place finish was also the fourth time this season Johnson finished among the top five in a tournament, including two victories (Notre Dame Invitational on Sept. 10-11 and the UNLV Spring Invitational on March 13-15).
