The Kansas Lottery is urging its players to check their Powerball tickets. No Powerball players won the big prize in last night's drawing but a ticket worth $200,000 was sold in southeast Kansas.

That ticket -- and others sold in two other states -- matched the first five numbers for the $200,000 prize. The winning numbers last night were 15-16-24-35-and-47.

Two $10,000 cash prizes were sold in southcentral Kansas.
