More Info from the TD: Congratulations to Sangeeta Dhingra <\/strong>who won the WA State Girls Championship held Mar 28-29 in Redmond and Bellevue! Sangeeta is a 9th grader attending the International Community School and was rated 1891 USCF. Sangeeta<\/strong> upset Becca Lampman<\/strong> rated 2103 and the winner of this tournament for the prior 3 years with a round 3 upset, trapping her queen in 19 moves. Then Sangeeta<\/strong> and Naomi Bashkansky<\/strong> drew in round 4 and ended tied after 4 rounds with a score of 3.5 each. An Armageddon style playoff round decided the winner with Sangeeta<\/strong> playing Black with draw odds and 12 minutes against Naomi<\/strong> playing white with 15 minutes, both with a 5 second delay \u2013 Sangeeta <\/strong>finished with a checkmate. Sangeeta <\/strong>wins $500 to reimburse her travel expenses to the Susan Polgar Invitational later this year. Naomi<\/strong> qualifies to be the Washington representative to another national tournament where each state can send one girl.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
