VIRGINIA — A Powerball ticket sold in Virginia matched enough numbers in the Monday, March 9 drawing to win a $150,000 prize, according to lottery officials.
The winning numbers for the March 9 Powerball drawing were 22, 23, 28, 36, 54, with the Powerball number 13. The Power Play multiplier was 3x. The drawing featured an estimated jackpot of $47 million, with a cash value of $21.7 million.
The Virginia ticket matched four of the five white balls and the Powerball. Because the ticket included the Power Play option, the standard $50,000 prize for that match level was tripled to $150,000 with the 3x multiplier.
No ticket matched all six numbers to win the jackpot, meaning the top prize will roll over to the next drawing. Powerball drawings are held three times a week on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday nights.
Virginia lottery officials encourage players to check their tickets carefully and sign the back of any winning ticket before claiming their prize. The location where the winning ticket was sold has not yet been announced.
