Emma Hill Kepron continues to represent the ‘W’ in Winnipeg on Jeopardy!
The associate dean at the University of Winnipeg’s library clinched a second win during Friday’s episode.
She walked away with US$14,600 — on top of the US$11,400 she won during Thursday’s episode — and a new accomplishment: answering the tricky Final Jeopardy question.

Jeopardy host Ken Jennings with Emma Hill Kepron.
Knowing about Rome’s Praetorian Guard came in handy.
“It’s still a blur,” Hill Kepron said Friday.
The episode aired at 4:30 p.m. in Winnipeg. Hill Kepron had a viewing party with friends, smaller than the one she held Thursday.
On Thursday, the crew watched Hill Kepron win during her first Jeopardy! appearance.
Hill Kepron flew to Los Angeles in February to compete on the long-running game show. Before arriving, she studied topics including state capitals, the U.S. Civil War and the periodic table of elements.
She’s been a fan of the show since she was a teenager.
Hill Kepron will reappear on Monday’s Jeopardy! episode.
