GMU has had its 15 minutes of fame, now it’s UMBC’s turn.

UMBC’s world-class chess team emerged from the “Final Four” of college chess with a hard-fought victory over its arch-rivals the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) at the 2006 President’s Cup Tournament. This follows UMBC’s victory at the 2005 Pan-American Collegiate Chess Tournament, also known as the World Series of College Chess. MORE
