Tyler Combs, IU senior and political science major, will return to the “Jeopardy!” College Championship as a semifinalist Monday at 7:30 p.m. on NBC (WTHR).
“It hasn’t quite processed yet,” Combs said in an interview with Sarah Whitcomb Foss from the Winners Circle that was published on April 10. “I’m waiting for that to set in tonight.”
Combs left the quarterfinals that aired Friday with $28,400 in winnings, a nearly $10,000 lead over his competitors. He is now one of nine semifinalists left in the championship, which will conclude April 17. The winner will receive an invitation to compete in the “Tournament of Champions.”
After winning the quarterfinals Friday night, Combs will compete alongside University of Florida sophomore Kayla Kalhor and Northwestern University freshman Beni Keown Monday. This will be the first episode of the Championship semifinals.
