Our young Tigers were amazing at the City Chess Championships.  We came in clear first in two sections, and a very respectable third place in the third.  Our K-1 team demolished the competition with sixteen points.  The second place team was a point and a half behind, which at these events is a huge gap.  

The Dalton Primary Varsity (Open) team also came in with a clear first, and our Primary Novice team placed third, giving us a dominating overall performance for the primary sections.

The children worked very hard for this (and had fun doing it), coming in for three four-hour sessions on the Saturdays leading up to this big event, as well as pretty rigorous sessions after school.  We had a record thirty-one children show up for the games, necessitating an additional analyst to help our students in going over their games between rounds.
