On February 18, 2024, the Charlotte Chess Center hosted the 42nd edition of our weekly Sunday Action Quads event. SAQ is a scholastic quads tournament held every Sunday at the Main/South location. This tournament drew 30 players across seven sections, including a six player Quad G.
The following players finished in first place in their respective quads:
Quad A: Benjamin Raz (2 points)
Quad B: Neil Harit (3 points)
Quad C: Grant Jones (3 points)
Quad D: Joel Kindy (3 points)
Quad E: Three-way tie between Anirudh Prasanna, Carter Hahn, Sudeeksha Shashidhar (2 points)
Quad F: Gabriel Williams (3 points)
Quad G (six player "small swiss"): Daniel Rubanenko (3 points)
All five of our 3/3 scorers (Neil Harit, Grant Jones, Joel Kindy, Gabriel Williams, and Daniel Rubanenko) achieved new peak USCF ratings as well! A reminder that all perfect scorers in grades K-8 have now qualified for the NEW Tournament of Champions event, scheduled for May 4, 2024.
We hope to see you at the next Sunday Action Quads tournament on February 25!
