SMCA Conference Tournament Results

At the end of the high school conference season, there is a tournament for all the players in the conference.  The tournament does not count against tournament standings.  Usually we have 5-7 players attend.  This time around, due to other conflicts, we just had a few.  Evan Seghers, Fernando Collahuazo and Alyssa Przedwiecki.  While the conference is only for grades 7-12, the tournament is open to younger kids who might want to check out the conference - thanks for coming Alyssa!  She did very well in the tournament, winning 2 and drawing 1 against much older competition.
Fernando and Evan each went 4-0 against some of the top players in the conference to take 1st and 2nd.
Evan was voted MVP of the conference by the coaches this year, which was a nice honor.  Fernando made 2nd team and Jason was honorable mention.
Thanks to all players who played this year!  Next year, the SMCA will have 3 meets on 3 separate Saturdays, doing away with the pre-season and post-season tournaments AND no more Tuesday matches after school.  This was our proposal which was voted in by the coaches.  We may or may not be USCF rated- this was also our suggestion, but there is some opposition to this.
