Steven Olson, a band instructor from Princeton High School and Logan Junior High School, has won his first three games on the popular TV game show “Jeopardy!”

Olson fulfilled a lifelong dream to be invited to appear on “Jeopardy” in Los Angeles, which Shaw Local News Network was first to report Sept. 9.

He first appeared Friday, Sept. 19, winning $19,602. The PHS band surprised him by playing a rendition of the “Jeopardy!” theme song at halftime of Friday’s football game.

On Monday’s show, he finished first with a winning prize of $26,849.

In his latest show, on Tuesday, Olson ran his total up to $27,800 before settling for a first-place prize of $10,638 after losing out on $17,162 in the Final Jeopardy round.

His three-day cash prize total stands at $57,089.

Olson was scheduled to appear at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday on KWQC Channel 6 on the Princeton Comcast network.
