Upper Schooler Ashbea Rose Wins At Fast Chess
On October 11th, at the 2008 Hawaii Fall Interscholastic Chess Tournament - Quick Competition (High School Division), Ashbea Rose Oyadomari single handily took 2nd Place in the individual competition and Hanalani won 3rd in the team. At the 2008 Hawaii Fall Interscholastic Chess Tournament Team Blitz Competition (High School Division), Ashbea Rose and Jacob Prothero, 2nd grade, also won 1st place (Yes, a Hanalani 2nd grader won 1st place in the High School competition). In quick competitions, games are no longer than 10 minutes and in blitz competitions games are no longer than 5 minutes. Each player played 12 games each, 6 games from each side of the chess board (6 black and 6 white), as there a few strategic advantages to each position. Fast thinking, planning and reflexes are a must. Congratulations to Ashbea Rose and Jacob on all of their accomplishments!
