Meet Brandon Van. He's a senior leader in student activities, and his accomplishments over four years on the Chess Team have been remarkable.
Brandon plays board two for our undefeated Varsity Chess Team (10-0 on the season!), and HE is undefeated this season as an individual player.
Even more impressive is his four year conference record:
Freshman 10-2-0
Sophomore 12-0-0
Junior 11-0-1
Senior 10-0-0 (2 games to go)
TOTAL RECORD: 43-2-1 💣
Final fun fact: As a sophomore, Brandon became one of only four Reavis players in school history to earn a state medal. Fingers crossed for this year.
We wish him, his fellow teammates, Head Coach Mr. Jebens, and Assistant Coach Mr. Carlini the best of luck on the rest of the season!
