STATE HIGH SCHOOL CHESS TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS
MARCH 2-3, 2018

The two day long chess extravaganza known as the 2018 Washington State High School Chess Team Championships reached its incredible conclusion on the evening of Saturday, March 3, and it was one for the record books.

The air kept getting thicker and the tension higher as the last few games in the final round were concluding.  An expanding number of coaches and players were deducing or being informed just how extremely close this championship was becoming.  When the dust had settled after five rounds of play, lo and behold ... five teams were in a tie for first, each scoring 18.0 points out of a possible 25.0.  

The Washington High School Chess Assocation rules have much verbage on breaking ties, including a mandatory speed chess playoff if two teams are tied for first (it's happened at least twice, once when Blaine hosted), but nothing addressing how to break a five way tie for first.  After a coach's conference, it was decided to declare all five schools co-champions.  The Ollie Cup gets to travel around this year!

The 2018 Washington State High School Chess Team Champs are therefore Lakeside HS, Newport HS, Garfield HS, Interlake HS, and Bellevue HS.  Congratulations to all five!

Here's how the local warriors of the 64 squares fared against a very tough field.  Keep in mind that these are the best chess teams in the State, and had to qualify through their division leagues.

11th in State - Ferndale HS
13th          - Sehome HS
15th          - Lynden HS
16th          - Meridian HS
21st          - Blaine HS
