A Copiah County woman won $35,000 on a $3 Crossword scratch-off game purchased at Ashley’s 51 Stop in Wesson.

Another half-dozen Mississippians collected more than $285,000 in prize money Friday morning.

The majority went to the purchaser of a lottery ticket in Prentiss. Don C. of Jefferson Davis County won from the Mississippi Match 5 jackpot.

Don and his wife have enjoyed playing Mississippi Match 5 since it started last year, and he always chooses his own numbers. Those numbers paid off.

He purchased his winning Mississippi Match 5 ticket from Fleetway 170 at 977 Columbia Ave. in Prentiss. The winning numbers drawn were 17-21-23-29-33. The jackpot for the Saturday, April 30, Mississippi Match 5 drawing is $55,000.
