Another Arlington resident will compete on Jeopardy tonight.

The classic TV quiz show has hosted a number of Arlington contestants over the years and at least one clue about our fair county. Tonight, it’s up to Brianna Weck to do us proud.

Weck is a community engagement manager for D.C. nonprofit HER Resiliency Center and a 2020 graduate of American University, according to an online biography and LinkedIn profile. She also volunteers as an English as a Second Language teacher with Catholic Charities and has a black belt in Judo.

The guest host for this week’s episodes is sportscaster Joe Buck. Longtime host Alex Trebek died in November after a battle with stage 4 pancreatic cancer.
