2017 Blizzard Bowl -----Results---

First and foremost a huge THANK YOU must go out to Mr. Wilson and his staff at Sonwil in Elma NY, for sponsoring the 6^th annual BLIZZARD BOWL, we couldn’t do it without you.

This year the tournament attracted over 55 new and seasoned chess players from all corners of Western New York. Beginning with our usuals from Pioneer Central, Bishop Timon, Canisius, St. Joes and our newcomers from Elmwood Village Charter School and Lockport Knights. Without your love for the game of chess none of these events would be possible, Thank You coaches and parents alike.

Now without further ado here are the results of the individual, and team competitions for each section, followed by some images captured at this wonderful tournament. Thank you and I hope you all had a great time at “The Blizzard Bowl”.

Thank You, Mrs. Marlette for sponsoring The Mother's Day tournament at The Buffalo Seminary. It's no surprise that mothers are always that special person in our lives, and we like to honor Mom's as often as we can. The chess mother's in this tournament were the reason for its success; starting with Mrs. Munson, Mrs. Paradis, Mrs. Peruzzini, all the way thru to Mrs. Bowers, we thank you for all the support you give to our small but ever growing chess community.

Now let's talk about some chess winners of this little but great tournament.

In the Unrated section we had a new comer who came to play and win: Avijeet Mishra.

The Unrated runner up saw Caroline Finkbeiner finally get her game on, in her soon to be future High School.

 In third place Adam Peruzzini worked his own little magic in the unrated section.

The Open section had Mr. Hennessey in first place, followed by Mr. Cirillo and Mr. Barleben.

The most exciting section was definitely the Under 1200 section where there was a battle royal between the up and coming Bishop Timon St. JudeTimon chess boys and the Buffalo Seminary girls.

The new Chess Club student president from "Sem", Mikang Kim saw herself fighting for her spotlight against Cullen Tonge and then Moses Edwards. The games were challenging for both sides but in the end in a Mother's Day tournament the young lady prevailed.

Winner Mikang Kim…Runner up Cullen Tonge…third place Andrew Dziadzio.
