Discovery World Results

Our K-6 participants at Discovery World

Lots of fun at Discovery World!  Thanks to the parents (especially Dan S) who got us our own area and for Will for making the little signs.  Lots of focus on chess, even with all the distractions, and it showed in our results.  Some kids had to "Play Up" because their rating was higher than what was allowed for this tournament for their grade level.

In K3, Nate May and Alex Swieszynski both won 3.5 out of 5 to earn their RED wrist bands!  Joel went 3 out of 5, Great work, guys!  Joshua Kierzek and Noah Church also added 2 wins to the Muskego Club Team who won the 3rd place trophy, missing 2nd by only half a point!
In K6, David Bundy took 4.5 wins out of 5 and earned the 2nd place individual trophy (and his red wrist band).  Anoushka Prasad, Gavin Joers (playing up from K3) and Alyssa Przedwiecki took 3 out of 5. Nelson Klein (playing up), Dylan Cleveland, Willow Otterbacher and Mitchell Salentine added 2 points each to the team, and Steven Wauer also helped out with a win, as our K6 team took 2nd place, losing only to the strong Golda Meir team.  We were in first for much of the day!
In K12, Evan Seghers was inconsolable after losing his first game, and took a walk in the snow.  He returned to win his next 4 games and take first place overall (and win a family membership to Discovery World which he is giving to his triplet cousins for their birthday).  Reid Seghers added 3.5 out of 5, Will Schantz 3 out of 5 (playing up from K6), Kolton Otterbacher 2, Kyle Jain 2 (playing up from K6) and Brian Mark added a win to the team effort.  Our K12 team including three LDMS players and three MHS players finished in 1st place overall.  Great job!
