Jeopardy! is going to be running a “Teen Reunion” tournament—which looks like it will be called a “High School Reunion Tournament”—this season.
The news was announced on today’s “Inside Jeopardy” podcast. The 27 players in the field will be competing over 14 episodes: 9 quarterfinals, 3 semifinals, and a “two-day total point affair” final. The tournament is set to air from February 20–March 9, 2023.
“We didn’t want to lose that sort of college energy [this season],” said Jeopardy! Executive Producer Michael Davies in a press release. “We knew we had these 27 players who are all of college age who come from our existing JEOPARDY! community, so this was a great opportunity to bring them back.”
The 27 players are going to be players who competed on the show in the two Season 35 Teen Tournaments held by the show (in November 2018 and June 2019); those tournaments included such fan favorites as Avi Gupta.
Unfortunately for the legions of fans of 2018 Teen Tournament finalist Emma Arnold, the contestant list released by the show does not have Emma on it—nor does it have 2019 Teen Tournament finalist Ryan Presler. On “Inside Jeopardy” today, the show did say that some players were unavailable and that they would be invited back in some capacity. Sophia Weng, who was a quarterfinalist in the 2019 Teen Tournament, was also not on the contestant list.
The winner of this tournament will be given a Tournament of Champions invitation—which I think is a nice touch, being that the winners from these respective tournaments four years ago were unable to compete in a Tournament of Champions. First prize in the tournament will be $100,000.
This isn’t the first “Teen Reunion” tournament that the show has run; in 1998, the show ran a tournament featuring players from their 1987, 1988, and 1989 Teen tournaments in Boston.
The contestants set to compete are:
Justin Bolsen, a freshman at Brown University in Providence, R.I. from Canton, Ga.
Maggie Brown, a junior at the University of West Florida in Pensacola, Fla. from Pensacola. Fla.
Tim Cho, a senior at Columbia University in New York, N.Y. from Savoy, Ill.
Avi Gupta, a senior at Stanford University in Palo Alto, Calif. from Portland, Ore.
Jack Izzo, a senior at Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill. from San Diego, Calif.
