Three Wanamaker students competed in the K-3 category at the 2025 Kansas State Chess Championship, held on March 15th, 2025, at Emporia University.

The competition was fierce, with 59 students participating, each playing six one-hour matches. The combined efforts of the students contributed to this remarkable achievement for the school.

Kushaan Chaurasia (3rd Grade) won 2nd place individually in the K3 category, helping to secure the school’s overall 2nd place finish. Additionally, Jay Kamble (3rd Grade) placed 5th, and Pranith Reddy Mandapati (2nd Grade) finished 14th, further adding to the school’s success.

The results have been published on the official website: KSCA State Championship Standings. https://sites.google.com/view/ksca-state-25/home/pairings-standings/k-3-pairings?authuser=0
(see tab "K-3 Team Stand" for the team’s final stats and "K-3 Ind Stand" for individual standings and stats).

This accomplishment reflects the hard work, determination, and strong teamwork of all involved. Congratulations to all three students! Amazing job!
