This Dalila de Guanajay is stronger than the Samson of the biblical legend, and she left every rival in her path without hair: her power on the chessboard was crucial for the province to rise to the second seat in the Pioneer Games.
According to information provided by Andrés Sintao Cruz, provincial commissioner for this discipline, little Dalila Toledano Fernández won first place undefeated, with six out of seven possible points, due to five wins and two draws. In addition, she added 53 points to her Elo rating of 1357.
Guided by her coach, Maestra Fide Femenina (WMF) Ana Bárbara Sierra, national youth champion in 2019, she had just won the gold medal among girls in the mixed under 12 category, in the Buscando a Capablanca tournament.
This time, his actions contributed to the fact that Artemisa was barely preceded by the organizers of the contest, Villa Clara, and was able to relegate Matanzas to the end of the podium.
Sintao Cruz pointed out that José Carlos Cartaya Pérez achieved 2.5 points and was ranked 13th, despite being eight years old.
The provincial chess commissioner declared that, in the National School Games, the Artemisa team got ninth place.
“In the first women’s board Melissa Diez Ortiz made 2.5 points out of seven and anchored in 12th place; while, on the second board, Dachelis María Caballero Fernández, with 4.5, rose to sixth place. Both are under 12 players and played in the school category (under 15).
“Among the men, on the first board Fabián Pérez Mantilla obtained three points and ranked eighth; Wilber Ondar Hernández, on the second board and also with three points, was ranked 11th”.
