$100,000 Powerball Winner in Memphis

NASHVILLE— A lucky Powerball player in Memphis won $100,000 last night by matching four of the white ball numbers drawn plus the Powerball. The base prize for that prize level is $50,000, but since the Memphis player added the Power Play option for an extra dollar, the prize was multiplied by last night’s multiplier, which was two.

No information is available about the winner until the prize is claimed.

A $298.3 million Powerball jackpot ticket was sold in New York.
