Chess competition continues

CHECKMATE. SHS students compete in a tournament involving not athleticism but strategy, knowledge, and thinking. The SHS Chess Team played against Lakota West, ending in a tie three to three with the seventh board being called a draw.

There are five varsity players and two JV competitors.
