Dae San Kim is the first CCL Champion!!

Dae San scored a perfect 5-0 score to win the 1st CCL Championship.  14 players participated in this event which included 2 experts and 3 class A players.  I have always been impressed with Dae San‘s ability, which this event further cemented in my mind.  Dhruti Shah came in clear 2nd place with a 4-1.  Dhruti has been playing very well the past 6 months.  In this tournament, she played 1 expert and 3 class A players, with her lone loss being to Dae San..  Many players had 3-2 scores.  Tournament results are at http://www.uschess.org/msa/XtblMain.php?202008223252-13758563.
