Hockinson Chess Challenge

I attended the Hockinson Chess Challenge on March 14, 2008. I had 4 wins and took First Place in 4th Grade. I lost only to a 5th grader whose parent is the coach of a chess club. I have fun this season, hope to learn more and get ready for the State to be held in Redmond and the Nationals in Pittsburg, PA!

YMCA Chess Tournament

I attended the YMCA chess tournament at Salmon Creek on March 1, 2008. I did good, had 4.5 wins out of 5 and took Third Place in Grades 4-6 Open on tiebreaks. I was so excited my buddy Tristin had 3 wins and qualified for the State to be held in Redmond in April 2008. Yeah, we can travel together and battle with our chess pieces!
