2015 US Blind Championships

Tournament is in progress in Pittsburgh. The last round is underway. Al Pietrolungo leads at 3-0, followed by Henry Olynik and Joe Wassermann with 2-1.

The PA State Chess Federation’s Facebook page has photos for those who might be interested. (The page is easy enough to find via Google; I’d rather stay on the moderators’ good side by not linking to it here.)

Top finishers:

1st - Al Pietrolungo, 4-0
2nd/3rd - Henry Olynik, Joe Wasserman, 3-1
