One Powerball ticket worth $2 million from the Wednesday, Oct. 22, drawing was sold at Sunoco, 3167 Susquehanna Trail, York.

The winning ticket correctly matched all five white balls drawn, 29-30-40-42-50, but not the red Powerball 16, and added Power Play®, which boosted the prize to $2 million, less 25 percent federal withholding. Without purchasing the $1 Power Play option, this winning ticket would have been worth $1 million.

The retailer will receive a $10,000 bonus for selling this winning ticket.

The prize must be claimed and the ticket validated before the winner can be identified. Pennsylvania Lottery Powerball winners have one year from the drawing date to claim prizes.

The Lottery encourages the holder of the winning ticket to sign the back of the ticket, call the Lottery at 717-702-8146 and file a claim at any of Lottery’s seven area offices or at Lottery headquarters in Middletown, Dauphin County.

Claims may be filed Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at area offices and at headquarters from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

More than 26,500 other Pennsylvania Lottery Powerball tickets won prizes of varying amounts in the drawing, including 5,811 winners who bought the Power Play feature and multiplied their prize by two.

In the 2012-13 fiscal year, in addition to awarding more than $69.8 million in prizes to winners across York County, the Pennsylvania Lottery contributed more than $27.7 million to programs serving the county’s older residents.

The Powerball jackpot for Saturday, Oct. 25, rolled to an annuity value of $125 million or a $79 million cash prize.
