Tyler Keith is the 2016 Waterville CSD Chess Champion!

From Katie Parker, WCS Librarian
"Throughout the month of March, members of the Waterville school community competed to determine the best chess player at the Waterville Central School District via a March Madness Bracket-Style Chess Competition @ the school library  Thirty-two individuals, ranging from seventh graders to school administrators, signed up to demonstrate their prowess in the single-elimination chess tournament.  Chess matches were scheduled in the school library during students’ study halls and lunch periods.  On April 4th, after five grueling rounds, tenth grader Tyler Keith earned the 2016 Waterville CSD Chess Champion trophy and a three dimensional chess set.  Congratulations to all who competed!"

- ON THIS DAY -
In honor of Major League Baseball's Opening Day on Monday, April 4th:

"On this day in 1974, Hank Aaron of the Atlanta Braves hits his 715th career home run, breaking Babe Ruth's legendary record of 714 homers. A crowd of 53,775 people, the largest in the history of Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium, was with Aaron that night to cheer when he hit a 4th inning pitch off the Los Angeles Dodger' Al Downing."
