Today’s Jeopardy! contestants:
Kate Lazo, an educational consultant from Walnut Creek, California

Alan Johnson, an analytics engineer from Metuchen, New Jersey
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:
After an extremely exciting game last night, today’s Champions Wildcard match is between Alan Johnson, Dennis Chase, and Kate Lazo! I’m expecting to see another hotly-contested match today, though Dennis does have extremely strong statistics (his average Coryat is over $20,000).

More information about Final Jeopardy:
(The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2023 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)
Upset at the fact that Joan of Arc’s appearance at Orléans in 1429 had caused a French victory, the English captured the military leader the following year, painting her as a religious heretic and burning her at the stake in 1431. However, following the French victory in the Hundred Years’ War, Pope Callixtus III was petitioned to repair Joan’s honor; the Catholic Church declared on July 7, 1456 that Joan had been tried as a result of “false articles of accusations” of heresy; effectively implying that Joan had been martyred as a prisoner of war. By the early 20th century, Joan had been canonized by the Catholic Church.
