What is Abigail Davis. That’s who many people in Northeast Georgia tuned in to see Friday evening on Jeopardy!

Davis, of Clarkesville, is the Vice President for Student Affairs at Toccoa Falls College. She appeared on the April 8 episode of the syndicated television game show.

While introducing the former classroom teacher turned college administrator, host Mayim Bialik noted that Davis plays in a weekly pub trivia game.

“We’ve been doing it for a few years and I helped come up with the name ‘Jeopardy Wannabes,'” Davis said. Now that she’s been a contestant on the popular game show, she added, “we’re going to have to come up with a new name.”

Spoiler alert, Davis did not win. She came in second behind now four-time champion Mattea Roach. Still, it was fun watching this local compete on TV, moving from wannabe to Jeopardy alum.
