WASHINGTON (AP) - The Dallas area is home to the biggest geography whiz.
Thirteen-year-old Eric Yang of The Colony won the National Geographic Bee in Washington today.
The teen gets a $25,000 college scholarship.
Eric didn't miss a single question in the finals. He took the title on the third question of a tiebreaker round: Timis County shares its name with a tributary of the Danube and is located in the western part of which European country?
Eric gave the correct answer - Romania.
Alex Trebek (truh-BEK') of TV's "Jeopardy!" hosted the competition.
There was one question from Trebek that stumped the winner, who was born in Singapore and moved to Texas at age 2.
