Archie Dore scored 7.5  posting 7 wins and 1 draw with only 1 loss to finish a full point ahead of 2nd place competitor Ernie Johnson who scored 6.5 points.  Craig Fisher was a surprise 3rd place finisher with 6 points.  But anything can happen in a Blitz tournament.  All 10 players had a very good time, thoroughly enjoying the friendly competition. High praises go to New Director Chris Brooks who organized and ran a very smooth tournament.  For official Cross Table Go to URL:   http://www.uschess.org/msa/XtblMain.php?201511098122-10124743
