Say hello to Northfield’s newest titleholders—the kNighthawks, our unstoppable Chess Team, who just completed an undefeated 11-0 season in the PlayVS Mountain Region, going 22-0 in sets!
This is no casual chess club—these students faced fierce competition across the region and came out on top, defeating their final opponent from Calgary, Alberta with style and focus.
Led by junior standouts Enrico M, Luke N, and Jonas W, the kNighthawks showed that strategy, resilience, and teamwork are just as powerful on the virtual board as on any playing field.
And yes—this championship isn’t CHSAA-sanctioned, but make no mistake, this is high-level competition. 💪
👏 Big shoutout to Alex R and Alex C for their behind-the-scenes support all season long!
