T's 1st Chess Tourney

This school year marks the first time Thompson has participated in the school's Chess Club, which convenes each Friday.  And today, he participated in his first local chess tournament...and placed 2nd!  (There were 19 kids in the K-1 division in which he played.)  His first game was a draw, earning him 0.5 point.  He won his next three games, each earning 1.0 point, and finished with 3.5 points.  What an accomplishment!
