Preliminaries: Shoenhard/Silver/Sprangers
May 6

It's that time of the year again, when many a college senior is ready to take on the world. Today, and every day for the next two weeks, 15 college students are going to take each other on for $100,000 and a possible $250,000 seat in the next Tournament of Champions in Jeopardy's Spring Classic, the College Championship.

What challenges await the brightest collegians in the country? How will they rise to meet them? The answers to these questions could be worth $100,000 for the winner, $50,000 for the first runner-up, and $25,000 for the second runner-up. Semifinalists are guaranteed $10,000, while everyone who competes gets $5000. Any and all prizes depend on how far up a player moved in the standings.

And it all starts, wait for it..... RIGHT NOW!

Video Daily Double: $800 Constitution USA with Peter Sagal. After a line-ruling giving her $4200 to Julia's $4800, she bets $1200 on this: a New London, Connecticut, fight over this, government power to take private property, ended with land seized and nothing built. "What is eminent domain?" CORRECT for $5400!

At the end of Jeopardy!...

I JUST "ATE" THE OFFICE THIS IS HUGE THAT'S WHAT
CHE SAID

Daily Double #1: $1600 European Cities. Hannah still leads with $800 to Julia's $4600. She fronts $2400 on this: this Bavarian city traces its origins to a Benedictine monastery at Tegernsee. "What is Munich?" CORRECT for $10,400!

Daily Double #2: $1600 This Is Huge. Jed has $7400, a long way away from Hannah's $18,000. He fronts $3000 on this: a synonym for "huge" starts the name of this model of large-screen TV developed by Sony & seen in stadiums. "What is Jumbotron?" RIGHT for $10,400!

At the end of Double Jeopardy!...

A sure thing for Hannah disintegrated quickly, and now it's anyone's game.

Final Jeopardy! category: STATE QUARTERS

 

THE BACK OF THE QUARTER FOR THIS STATE IS THE ONLY ONE THAT FEATURES A MONARCH

 

Correct response: what is Hawaii?

Julia's response: what is Virginia Hawaii? CORRECT. Wager: $6200. Total: $16,400.
Jed's response: what is Virginia? WRONG. Wager: $5601. Total: $9199.
Hannah's response: what is Hawai'i? WRONG. Wager doesn't matter.

Semifinalist: Hannah Shoenhard

Hannah is in it to win it, but if she wants to really make a statement, she needs to play a solid 30 minutes and not give an inch to anyone.

One semifinalist down, eight to go. Come back next time to see what happens.
