Isabella and Meghan Represent McKinley at All Girls

Wisconsin All Girls 2017 Tournament (WSCF)

For some reason, proportionally more boys choose to play chess than girls.  OF COURSE, this does not mean boys are "better" at chess.  Once a year, the WSCF has a tournament just for girls.  This Saturday Feb 11, two of McKinley's 4th grade girl chess players - Meghan and Isabella - represented McKinley at this tournament.  Because they had done so well in previous tournaments, they had to play in the K-12 division against girls as old as 12th grade!  They did very well, each winning 2 games in the tournament.  Way to go GIRLS!
