Winning the 2021 US Amateur Team chess tournament!

My three teammates and I WON THE 2021 US Amateur's West TEAM CHESS TOURNAMENT YESTERDAY!!!  We were the #1 seed in the Under 1800 section. There was 40 teams in our section. After two long days of playing six rounds, WE WON THE TOURNAMENT with 5 out of 6 points. I played on board one. Five of my opponents were rated above 1800, which means tough opponents. In one of the rounds, I drew against a National Master rated 2331.

Our team name was called, "100% Lady Chess moves".

Even though chess is a male dominated game, LADIES AND WOMEN PLAY CHESS WELL!!
