The last question was: Will Wally Ellenson medal (finish in the top three) at the Pan Am Junior Championship in the High Jump? The answer was yes - not only did Ellenson finish in the top three, he placed first. Fourteen people answered correctly this week. Lori Anne Schwiesow and Mary Varney are tied for first with eighteen points. They are followed closely by Pat Foley and Dimitri Drekonja with seventeen points.
