2003 Texas Girls Scholastic Chess Championships
We had an exciting weekend with 139 girls playing 6 rounds of chess, and 18 mother/daughter teams in a non-rated tournament on Saturday night. You can see individual and team results by clicking on the links below. The mother/daughter teams are listed by the daughter's name. Although "surrogate" mothers were allowed, the majority of the teams were actually mothers with their own daughters.
Special congratulations go to Stephanie Ballom of Mansfield who received the scholarship to University of Texas-Dallas, and to Roshni Patel of Alice who received the Texas A&M University-Kingsville scholarship.
