The top high school, K-8 and K-12 girls are gathering in Wisconsin this week for three prestigious and storied competitions. The events are invitation-only with generally one entry per state.

Illinois representatives David Peng (Denker), Dimitar Mardov (Barber) and Marissa Li (Girls), currently have a combined score for the three events of 9/12.  That puts defending Champions Illinois  currently in a 4-way tie for 2nd place with Michigan, Southern California, and Washington. Virginia is currently in first place with 11 points and perfect 4.0 scores in both the Barber and Denker.

But the tournament is not over – 2 more rounds remain!

There are no other perfect scores except the two from Virginia. Marissa Li is currently in a 4-way tie for first place with 3.5 points in the NGTOC (National Girls Tournament of Champions).

Stay tuned for updates as the week progresses -- and the main US Open event proceeds in Middleton, WI.
