Two Kansans won $50,000 in Powerball on Monday night.

While they didn’t take home the approximately $700 million jackpot, one ticket in northeast Kansas and one in northwest Kansas matched four numbers and the Powerball to win $50,000, according to the Kansas Lottery. The northwest Kansas ticket added on a Power Play multiplier that doubled the prize to $100,000.

The northeast Kansas area includes Wyandotte, Johnson, Leavenworth counties and several other counties.

Powerball’s winning jackpot ticket was sold in California. Powerball now returns to a $20 million jackpot.
