Youths Score Big At School Scrabble Tourney ==   Several of the club's youth players turned in great results at the North American School Scrabble Championship held at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass., on April 9-10, 2016. Stefan Fatsis' D.C. School Scrabble group had the biggest contingent at the tournament—11 of the 85 teams. Including other local players, D.C.-Maryland-Virginia placed five teams in the top 10 and nine in the top 20.  8th-graders Chloe Fatsis and Caleb Anderson of D.C. took 4th place with a 6-1 record and a spread of +637, winning $1,000. Chloe and Caleb were a blank or two from making the one-game finals, and they closed out their School Scrabble careers with four consecutive top 10 finishes at the championship. Among their most impressive bingos: ANTIGAY, VENISONS and MOVIEOLA. Our other D.C. Scrabble Club members who competed: 6th place: Simon Chervenak and Aidan Cook (Silver Spring), 6-1 +4148th place: Julius Cohen (D.C) and Harrison Benford (Potomac), 5-2 +48917th place: Sammy Taubman (D.C.) and Logan Strzepek (Charlottesville), 5-2 +14632nd: Avey Anderson and Charles Lee (D.C.), 4-3 +136 You can view see results from the tournament here: http://event.scrabbleplayers.org/2016/nassc/build/index.html
