A senior from Lynchburg, Virginia... Graham Gilmer | |||||||||||
Graham remembers as a kid watching Jeopardy! and not getting anything right. This assistant swim team coach was speechless when he found out he had been selected for the tournament, but after the news finally sank in he was very excited. To prepare for the tournament Graham practiced answering in the form of a question, and studied lots of trivia books. The tour of Philadelphia was one of the tournament's highlights for Graham. He adds, "I had never been treated that well in my life." | |||||||||||
