USCF Rating Report

113 players competed in the 1st annual Delaware Valley Open Championship, held in Center City Philadelphia at The Philadelphia School. IM Bryan Smith won the Championship section, becoming the first Delaware Valley Champion. Chirag Ram and Angelo Dellomargio tied for first place in the U/1600 section, drawing their 3rd-round game against each other and winning in every other round. Kyler Shinkle-Stolar was victorious in the Scholastic U/1000 section, scoring 4.5/5 points despite the fact that all five of his opponents placed in the top 10 by the end of the event!

The Philadelphia School won the club prize, a House of Staunton classic wooden chess set, calculated by adding together the scores of all players from the club, along with 1 point per player in the U/1000 section, 2 points per player in the U/1600 section, and 3 points per player in the Championship section.
