NLC run RAC close in friendly

The matches continue to roll on.

Tuesday 25 October saw the NLC play host to the RAC for a friendly match. The NLC big guns were out and we matched them in the top two boards and won on board 6. The middle order had a less successful night despite some very close games, and the overall score was 4-2 to the RAC.

  1. Henry Mutkin (W) 0.5 – 0.5 Dr. Kirby (B)
  2. Rob Matthews 0.5 – 0.5 Mister Widdicombe
  3. Michael Stern 0 – 1 Mister Hamme
  4. Mike Rolfe 0 – 1 Mister Osserian
  5. John Price 0 – 1 Roger Magio
  6. Sheldon Marshall 0 – 1 Luke King
