Fishbein Cracks Top 100 List

03.16.07 Matthew Fishbein is a name well known to our readers. The nine-year-old Cape Elizabeth native who was a member of the 2007 K-6 Championship team and is the current K-3 Maine State Individual Champion, has added another laurel to his chess resume. The Official USCF Rating Supplement for April, 2007 ranks Matthew the 68th highest rated nine-year-old in the nation with a rating of 1284--and with his performance recently at the team championships, that rating is going nowhere but up. Congratulations Matthew!
