🎉 Congratulations to our incredible South Texas Preparatory Academy! 🎉
What an amazing journey it has been, working alongside this exceptional team leading up to the National Championship. Despite the formidable challenge of moving up a division, your dedication and perseverance have paid off in the most remarkable way. Placing 3rd in the U1700 division is an outstanding achievement, and it's worth noting that this is the highest placement by any Texas team across the three different nationals (Elementary, Middle School, and High School).
Your hard work, resilience, and teamwork have truly set you apart. You have shown that with passion and determination, anything is possible. This accomplishment not only highlights your exceptional skills but also serves as an inspiration to all aspiring local teams out there.
It has been an absolute pleasure to witness your growth and success. May this remarkable achievement be just the beginning of many more incredible milestones on your journey. Keep shining, South Texas Preparatory Academy! 🌟

![Amari Cooper visits McAllen to promote Chess](https://img4.findglocal.com/413/789/944438804137898.jpg)
We are proud to be the first organization to bring in a celebrity in support of chess. In the Rio Grande Valley! ✨😎✨
🏈 NFL Superstar Amari Cooper 🏈 has vocally expressed that McAllen is the fastest growing chess community in the country! That’s right - in the United States! 🇺🇸
“One of the main things I think chess has taught me is how to take responsibility for my actions - how to man up.” - Amari
On a larger scale, Amari is also bringing in other celebrities outside of the chess realm to the same mission - chess deserves more recognition.
What happens to chess after it’s used to earn a scholarship? It mostly doesn’t get used again and that’s not acceptable.
We look forward to working together once again to continue boosting chess interest and growth.
Amari Cooper visits McAllen to promote Chess MCALLEN, Texas -- Five-time NFL Pro Bowl Wide Receiver Amari Cooper visited the RGV this weekend to help promote the sport of chess at the youth level.
