One more win moves her up the list into a three-way tie with 2005’s David Madden and 2019’s Jason Zuffranieri, who both won 19 games.
She is now in sixth place for highest winnings during regular-season play.
Roach has also secured an invite to the Jeopardy! Tournament of Champions, set to air in the fall.
