"This was a great experience, it is an honor to be able to
represent St. John's University as a contestant on JEOPARDY!" said
Victoria Manos. "Since I can't share the outcome of the
College Championship until after it airs, I hope my friends and
professors at school will tune in to cheer me on." Last year
Victoria was watching JEOPARDY! in her dorm room at St. John's when
she decided she would like to appear on the show. She applied
online and was asked to take the test for the College
Championship. Victoria was one of only 15 students selected
nationwide.
