MLive reported that in her semifinal match on the show on Thursday, Feb. 21, the 42-year-old Adrian College professor lost to Colby Burnett, a high school world history teacher from Chicago.
Earlier in the tournament, Jass lost out during her first appearance, but did well enough to secure a wild-card spot in Thursday's semifinal round.
During a successful run last fall, Jass became the most successful female contestant in the history of the syndicated TV game show.

As Ann Arbor Jeopardy fans, we enjoyed having one of "our own" county wizards to watch. Congratulations.

I enjoyed seeing her on the show as well. It's refreshing to see a contestant joke around with Alex Trebek!
