April Team Tournament Recap
This weekend was our last team tournament before the annual Brooklyn and Manhattan Cup, where teams will compete to take the cup home to their school for the next year. Over 150 students participated across 4 sections and nearly 50 teams between the boroughs.
This was our final team tournament ahead of the Elementary National Championship later this month, where our players will test the skills they've been honing all year in their clubs, at our weekend events, and at team tournaments. They've worked hard this year, and will have the opportunity to show their progress on a national stage later this month.
Congratulations to our first place winners, the Championship team from PS 130K, the Intermediate team from PS 130K, the Advancing team from PS 10K, and the Novice team from PS PS 130.
Our individual winners all went 3-0, in Championship, Zidanie Lewis from Success Academy Bed-Stuy, in Intermediate, George Gitt from PS 130K, in Advancing, Noah Kaye from PS 130K, and in Novice, Finnian Cheswick from PS 130K.
