Jeremy Hochheiser defeated Sunny Nariyani in the grand finals of the Chronicle’s Words With Friends Tournament Tuesday night at Rocky Top Student Center, Room 303.
Hochheiser held a large lead until the end when Nariyani brought the score within 35 points. However, Hochheiser was able to play top-valued letters “Q,” “Z” and “J” to clinch victory.
Both participants received monetary prizes and Words With Friends T-shirts.
Junior Christine Young was selected in a raffle to receive an iPad, while event attendees enjoyed food and music.
The Chronicle raised more than $700 for First Book, a charity for illiterate children.
