Carter Lomax Chess Club sponsor Christy Farrell and her team of 6th graders – Isayah Alderete, Eduardo Andrade, Nathan Hebert, and 5th graders Blake Danner and Mason Stuart – gathered at Beverly Hills Intermediate on Saturday, November 16th to compete against 5th and 6th grade students from other middle schools across the district. Sixty students battled their way through a nearly four hour tournament, while family, friends, and volunteers watched. After the five rounds were completed, awards were presented to those who placed high in the competition, though every student had fun - win, lose, or draw.
