For about 10 years, Mr. Rodriguez of Olive View Elementary has been tak- ing his team of chess play- ers to the Northern Califor- nia State Scholastic Chess Tournament. With the help of parent volunteer Sherman Lee and a few local sponsors, Corn- ing Elementary were able to send a team of nine stu- dents. This year the team con- sisted of one eighth grade student, three sixth-grad- ers and five fifth-graders. "This fundraising was important, because so many students in our district can- not afford the costs associ- ated with playing in the tournament," Rodriguez said. The team of sixth-graders was made up of Ian Swerin- gen and Jessica Vargas. In their section, they finished in eighth place. Max Swer- ingen, also a sixth-grader, was in a higher section be- cause he did so well last year. The fifth grade team, made up of Christopher Lee, Bradley Aliano, Juan Olivera, Joanna Carranza and Angel Rubalcava, fin- ished an impressive second place in their section. Cameron Lee was the only middle school student from the district. Cameron was just one game away from winning an individual trophy. "It's fun each year bring- ing our kids to this tour- nament," Rodriguez said. "There were about 900 play- ers in the K-12 tournament. It's an impressive sight, to see that many kids in one auditorium quietly playing chess."
