USM Results !

While we had some students attend the Holy Trinity event a week ago in Oconomowoc, this weekend kicked off the season for a larger group at University School Milwaukee.  The MSCC brought 12 players to the event which made it a nice turnout.

There is always of lot of competition at this event and all sections were USCF rated, making it a more challenging day for many, but there was a lot of good play.  I'm happy to see more players are getting better at taking notation - something that we focused on for this tournament and will continue to do so in other tournaments.  Remember, taking good notation and then replaying those games to learn from our mistakes is the best way to learn and grow!!

In the K3 section, Rishi was the only participant.

In the K6 section, Collin and Nelson were a team from LD and finished 11th and 7th place!  Nate, Sarah and Steven made up a BL team. Yashika had a very nice day w/ 4 wins and took 5th place!

And lastly for the K12 section, Kenny was the only LD player, Will and Aaron were the MHS team and had some nice wins, taking the 5th place team trophy, and Adam and Alyssa were the BL team taking 4th place team trophy! Alyssa had a very nice day with 3 out of 4 wins and took 7th place!

It was great to have such a nice Muskego presence at this great tournament.  We're really looking forward to an even bigger turnout at the next one, our own!!

Remember, no chess class this week.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!  Enjoy the time off and see you on the 30th!!
