PENNSYLVANIA - A Powerball ticket sold in Pennsylvania matched five numbers in Monday night’s drawing, winning $1 million just a few days before Christmas.
What we know:
The Pennsylvania ticket was one of several nationwide that matched all five white balls. The ticket did not include the Power Play, which was set at 2x for the drawing.
Because no one matched all six numbers, the Powerball jackpot continues to grow and now stands at an estimated $1.7 billion, with a cash option of $781.3 million.

- 3 – 18 – 36 – 41 – 54
