Lower Schoolers Vy for National Checkmate Honors

Eight Lower School students competed in the U.S. Chess Federation National Scholastic Chess Championships in Orlando, Fla., from December 12–14.
 
At the event, attended by more than 1,200 children from across the country, ’Wick team members played seven games of chess during an intense, three-day period — and they earned incredible success.
 
The 1st-grade team — composed of Neel Behringer, Henry Graham, Carl Homan, and Mark Homan — finished in 8th place.
 
3rd graders Thomas Ewald, Luke Homan, and Robert Ulmer teamed up to secure a 6th-place finish for Brunswick, the School’s best-ever result in the competition.
 
4th grader William Ewald also participated and took home an individual trophy for his 14th-place standing.
 
Lucas Korn, a 5th grader, became ill during the weekend and had to withdraw.
