Jordan Brownstein is the current team captain at Maryland, where he is a member of the Class of 2017. He is notable for his extremely deep specialty areas in literature and history (despite being a computer science major) and for coming out of relative nowhere -- namely Plymouth, New Hampshire, where his only good quizbowl exposure was one or two History Bowl events -- to establish himself nearly immediately as an elite collegiate player. After a year playing alongside (and sometimes outscoring) Chris Ray, Jordan became lead scorer of the Maryland team that finished 4th at ICT and 3rd at ACF Nationals in 2015.

Prior to teaming up at Chicago Open 2014, Mike Cheyne gave Jordan the nickname "The Viper", a reference to a particularly sadistic WWE wrestler. The name has stuck.

Jordan has also already become recognized for his prolific and high-quality question-writing, including for the 2014 NASAT and 2015's STIMPY.
