McKinley's K3 Team takes First!

 Chess Teaches Sportsmanship

Had a ton of fun at the Tosa Catholic tournament on Saturday 1/15.  This was our first chess tournament as a team, and very happy to have had 11 kids show up!
The big news is, our K-3 team of Nolan, Charlie, Max, Louis, Henry and Jack took home the 1st place trophy!!   3rd grader Louis led the way with 4 wins out of 5 games, just missing a trophy by taking 6th place Individual K-3.  Several kids won 3 out of 5 games also.  Every single kid achieved their goal of winning at least one game in the tournament!  Very proud of everyone.
Thanks also to the parents who showed up and helped out.  Final results link is here.
