Gator Nation:

We had 5 members represent in this past weekend's Central Florida Championship tournament.

We had two members compete in the "A" group - U1900 level!:

GreenbayPackers shook of rust, and won 3.5 out of a possible 5 points in this brutal group!

Ruelasker tied for 1st place with 4.0 out of 5 points!  Awesome!

Bill32606 got a very respectable 2 points in the tough "B" group

JimEbau played in his first tournament and got 3 out of 5 points in the U1200 section

I also competed in the U1200, went in with a lowly 689 rating, but also won 3 out of 5, losing only to 1st and 2nd place of the U1200.  I got a trophy & $42 prize for 1st place in U800 section

Not a bad showing from our group!  Please share your local tournaments with us so others may join in!

Go Gator Nation!

Dan

    That's quite a showing for a chess.com group.  I would venture to say that we won the team representation award (if you don't count the group from Crystal Lake Middle School).
