The UNL chess team will make its
first appearance since 1976 in the Pan
American Chess Tournament when it
travels to New Brunswick, NJ., in
December, according to the president
of the UNL Chess Club.
Tom Lombard said, "The Pan-American
tournament is usually won by an
Ivy League school some have actual
legitimate grandmasters. We don't have
anyone in that class, but we have a
good chance of coming back with a
trophy."
A master is a rating based on a
player's winloss record. The next rat
ing is expert, followed by A-, B-, C- and
D-rated players. Kevin Flemming and
Matt Mahowald of UNL are experts.
Lombard said they are very close to
becoming masters.
Team members going to the Pan-Am
tournament are Bill Benner, a junior
philosophy major, Lombard, a junior
engineering major; Matt Mahowald, a
computer science graduate student,
and Trini Rivera, a sophomore electri
cal engineering major.
Because the chess team doesn't
receive financial assistance from UNL,
team members will pay their own way
to New Jersey.
To save money while attending chess
tournaments, Lombard said, he has
slept in cornfields, on creek banks and
under hotel banquet tables.
Team member Bill Benner said to
him, chess is an "outlet for aggression."
"The best part of the game Is when I
see my opponent's ego crushed," he
said.
Lombard agrees.
"Its the most violent sport there is,
with the exception of bullfighting,
because it is literally fought to the
death," Lombard said.
The chess club, which meets on
Tuesdays at 5 p.m. in the Nebraska
Union recroom, will sponsor a non
rated tournament Sunday open to all
UNL students. Entry fee is $1 and tro
phies will be awarded to first-, second
and third-place winners.
The club also will sponsor a Pearl
Harbor open on Dec. 7. Entry fee is $7.
