SRM og UTD videre til CCL-finalen etter semifinaleseire

SRM Institute of Science and Technology og University of Texas-Dallas har nådd finalen i vårsesongen 2026 av Collegiate Chess League, noe som garanterer en ny mester etter at St. Louis University og University of Missouri-Columbia vant de syv foregående titlene. SRM slo SLU 9,5–6,5 i semifinalen, mens UTD beseiret Mizzou 8,5–3,5. Finalen er berammet til lørdag 18. april kl. 14.00 EDT.

St. Louis University og University of Missouri-Columbia har dominert Collegiate Chess League og vunnet de siste syv mesterskapene. Begge lagene ble imidlertid slått ut i semifinalene i vårsesongen 2026. SRM avanserte ved å slå ut UTRGV 9,5–2,5 i kvartfinalen, hvor stormester Harsh Suresh vant alle sine tre partier uten at lagkameratene tapte noen. Mizzou hadde gått videre etter å ha slått Texas Tech 10,5–5,5, men kom til kort mot UTD etter å ha fått en «bye» i kvartfinalen som forrige sesongs tapende finalister.
