Many Springs Quad #6

The Watauga Chess Club held its Many Springs Quad #6 on Saturday September 11, 2004. A total of 16 players participated in 4 quads. Quad #1 was highlighted by the strong play of 2004 Texas State Champion Nick Schoonmaker (2255) who finished with a 3-0 score. Quad #2 was won by Austin Green (1568) with a 2.5-0.5 score. Quad #3 was won by Isreal Perez (1344) with a 3.0 score and Quad #4 was won by D. Jon Mc Kee (Unr.) with a 2.5-0.5 score.

Robert Van Housen directed his first tournament for the Watauga Chess Club and on top of the normal SwissSys struggles for a new TD, he had the additional challenge of arriving at the tournament site and finding that there where no chess sets. The sets where all safety stored at another clubs member's home, who just happened to be working that day. Club president, and local chess Superman, Tom Crane, saved the day and found sufficient chess sets for the tournament proceed without delay.
