Medical College / IAC 

The MSCC attended the Medical College of Wisconsin Scholastic open on Saturday, which was well run by the IAC (our coaches) as always!

We brought 8 players across 4 divisions and had a lot of fun, 

K8 non rated

• This was the largest section of the tournament -- we brought Dean, Mia and Evelyn. 
• Mia led the way w/ 3.5 wins and took home the 7th place trophy!  Dean and Evelyn were both right behind w/ 3 wins 

K4 rated 

• Sawyer was our only player in this division (his first rated tournament!) and took 2 wins and a 7th place trophy!

K8 rated 

• Hunter was our sole player in this division and got 2 wins for the day 

k12 rated 

• We brought 3 players to this tough section - Anthony (who played up from K8), Josh and Luke.  Everyone got at least 2 draws and/or wins out of 4, and played some very good long matches

We'll now take a holiday break for two weeks and come back refreshed for the new year!  We'll see you back in class on Jan 4th.  Our next tournaments are ASA Clark on the 14th and Brookfield East on the 28th.

 Annual Tournament at LDMS 

The MSCC held our annual tournament at Lake Denoon Middle School this past Saturday - we had a lot of fun and brought home a lot of trophies as well!

While we were disappointed with the lower turnout than normal from surrounding schools, our Muskego club was well represented w/ 17 players from most of our schools.  Our students demonstrated good sportsmanship and played some very nice matches - especially our beginners!

Big thanks to the IAC for a very well run tournament, to LDMS for their continuing support and allowing us to host the event, and to our volunteers who helped it run smoothly, especially the concessions that fed all of the hungry players and their families!  This is our largest fundraiser event as well - special thanks to all who donated concessions items!
