TRENTON – His father thought he was pulling a prank to get out of finding a summer job. But 20-year-old college student Kristopher Chrysanthopoulos from Oceanport did indeed match five numbers in the Mega Millions jackpot May 28.

His reward? He can skip that summer job. He won $1 million of the $414 million jackpot.

Kristopher plans to take his family on a trip and put the rest of his winnings in savings.
