Olivia Colangelo (Murrysville, PA), a junior in the University of Notre Dame's College of Engineering was a contestant tonight on Jeopardy's The College Championship. Unfortunately, Colangelo ran into a "buzzsaw" in the form of Sid Chandrasehkar, a senior from the University of Pennsylvania. Olivia ended up with $15,000 as compared to Sid's $28,401. Nice effort Olivia, you did the IRISH proud! For what it's worth -- you would have cleaned my clock! Here's a link to Jeopardy's The College Championship website and a photo of all of the contestants along with a second link to a video of Olivia talking about getting chosen for the show, her "dream" categories and her future plans:
