Twenty-four scholastic chess players from Oregon are playing in the 113th U.S. Open, taking place in Vancouver, WA, this week. After the seventh round, which took place Thursday evening, our players are all doing well — and some spectacularly well — at this extremely high-level tournament. Detailed standings can be found at the link above; good luck to our players in the remaining two rounds!

Congratulations as well to Takuma Sato-Duncan, Dillon Murray, Gabe Skoro, and Nathan Jewell, all of whom won class prizes during the Blitz Tournament on Saturday afternoon.
