On June 3, the Sparta Chess Club took two scholastic teams to play in the Sussex County Scholastic Chess Championship. Our teams came in first and second out of seventeen teams competing. The Sparta Middle School team (in board order, 1. Mike S; 2. Ryan C; 3. Steven M; 4. Kyle R; Alt. Reeshav B) came in first and the Mohawk Avenue School Team (in board order, 1. Colby I; 2. John I; 3. Scott V; 4. Owen W; Alt. Alex R) came in second. Individually, Scott V won Board 3 Best of Tournament.
The photo above and those on this linked page are general pictures of the tournament, pictures of our two teams squaring off against each other (which resulted in the determination of who was first overall), and our teams with their awards for winning.
Congratulations to all.
