Pan-American Intercollegiate Chess Championship

fallen kingThere are many news stories on the going on this week in DC. I was happy to see the article in the New York Times not only quoted Professor Alan Sherman but also talked about two students from the College of Engineering and Information Technology on UMBC’s A team: CS major Katerina Rohonyan and IS major Bruci Lopez. The two photos in the Times article were of Katerina and Bruci. Round three of the six round tournament is going on right now with the final round to finish on Saturday.

Looking at the wall charts, I was amazed to see that UT Dallas has ten players rated above 2425 on their two teams. It’s going to be hard for the UMBC to defend its 2005 title and win, especially with our top top player, Alexander Onischuk, out this semester.
