Two lottery players win $50,000 according to Mississippi Lottery Corporation

MISSISSIPPI (WCBI) – Two Mississippi Lottery players got a little more change in their pockets to help with these rising gas prices.

According to the Mississippi Lottery Corporation, two people won $50,000 just days apart.

The first winner secured a winning ticket purchased at a Sprint Mart in Fulton.

The player matched four out of five white balls plus the Powerball in the Double Play Drawing.

Then, on Monday, a second player scored 50k by matching four out of five white balls with a Powerball ticket purchased at a Circle-K in Southaven.

With no jackpot winner, however, the estimated Powerball jackpot has grown to an $194 million with an $87.1 million cash value.

The next drawing will be tomorrow, April 1.

You can see the live Powerball drawing right here on WCBI’s 10 pm newscast.
