Hi, I'm Wil. Watch me on Kids Week!

What was your reaction when you found out that you were going to be on Jeopardy!?
I was pretty surprised, because our local news crew came to our door, and I knew nothing about it. So, it was pretty surprising.

How did you prepare for this game?
Um, I practiced clicking a button, and my dad was asking me, just, like, American history questions. We didn't know what else to do.

If you could invent a Jeopardy! category, what would it be?
THE SIMPSONS. I'm a really big fan of The Simpsons.

Who is your favorite character?
Homer.

What's your favorite Homer's expression?
Whoo-hoo!

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
I don't know. I haven't really thought about it. Maybe going to graduate school. I don't know where, though.

Would you like to say "Hi!" to anybody?
I want to say hi to my best friend Miles.

"His favorite subject is science, so it's not surprising that this Boy Scout has been to New Mexico to study aliens..."
