Evansville winner has one objective

William Granderson Jr. of Evansville has only one objective now that he’s won $1 million playing Powerball®.  “I’m going to make sure my daughter is taken care of,” said Granderson. The U.S. Army veteran matched the first five numbers in the February 15 Powerball drawing.  The prize for matching that combination was increased from $200,000 to $1 million just a month earlier.
