Archive: Blasts from the Past
Each year since its inception, the NSCF has produced a Grand Prix series of tournaments throughout Westchester County, NY and in Greenwich, CT. The NSCF has also produced the annual Westchester County and Greenwich City Scholastic Chess Championships.
Pictured at right is Josh Colas, our 2010 Westchester County Middle School Champion. That same year, Josh became the youngest ever African-American to become a chess master. He has won 6 national championships and today continues to play chess while studying (on a full scholarship for chess!) at Webster University in St. Louis.
Participating in our NSCF tournaments was great practice for many students who went on to national and international competition, including this 2007 team from Solomon Schechter who took top prizes from the National K-12 (Grade) Championships held in Houston. Bringing home the hardware are Alexander Reis, Max Steinberg, Josh Abady, Michael Bodek and Hannah Steinberg (missing from the picture is Ben Gershenov). Grandmaster Hikaru Nakamura came along to cheer everyone on.
