at the state high school chess tournament!

1st Place 12th Grade is the highest scoring Senior who did not win one of the top 20 Overall trophies.

It shows that myiuki placed:
- 33rd overall (out of 157 competitors in the High School Section)
- 1st for 12th Grade (out of 30 High School Seniors)
- 1st for High School Female (out of 16 girls in the High School Section)

so i get to go to texas!!!!!!!! i go to texas and i compete in girls tournament again! like last year! so cool...dreams exceeded....hehe

"In the 2008 Minnesota State Chess Association (MSCA) sponsored Scholastic Chess Championships, myiuki tied for 1st Place Female but did not win on tie-breaks. However, that year’s winner was unable to accept the invitation to the Polgar so the invite went to myiuki. She says it was that “fantastic week in Lubbock,”
where she won the Upset Prize, which caused her to set out to win the
2009 invitation....
Then she exceeded her dream. Out of the more than thirty high school seniors who competed, myiuki also won (on tie-breaks) 1st Place 12th Grade. It’s believed that, in the forty-four year history of these MSCA Scholastic Chess Championships, this is the first time a girl won that title."
