Upstate New York has been well represented on Jeopardy over the years. It seems like 2022 was a banner year for contestants coming from the area.

It appears there were a total of five contestants from Upstate New York on Jeopardy in 2022:

ELLEN LaBERGE

Ellen LaBerge is the most recent Central New York native to appear on the show, playing on December 9th. LaBerge is a lawyer from Syracuse.

Back in September, Kathy Wilcox, a 1998 graduate of Adirondack High School, appeared on the show. She grew up in Boonville and called it "a bucket list experience for sure."
