Chess Team Secures Silver Medal at the STEM Games

The Faculty’s chess team won 2nd place at the STEM Games student tournament, held in Umag last week. The chess team members were: Sandro Šafar, Ivan Trošelj, Filip Arapović, Antonio Pavlović and Fran Krsto Pilić.
After 7 rounds of play, the team earned 12 match points, finishing with 5 wins and 2 draws. They narrowly missed the championship title – lacking only a bit of luck and a few extra seconds on the chess clock. With this success, the team continues an impressive 5-year winning streak in chess at this competition, bringing the total result to 3 gold and 2 silver medals. Congratulations to our team on a hard-fought battle at the chessboard!
