  • Connecticut Word Wizards Win National School SCRABBLE(R) Championship
    May 5, 2007 Connecticut Word Wizards Win National School SCRABBLE(R) Championship 100 Teams From Across the Nation Competed for National Title PROVIDENCE, R.I., May 5 /PRNewswire/ -- More than a million students play the SCRABBLE® game in approximately 20,000 schools nationwide. Students from across the country hung on every word to see which team would triumph at the 2007 National School SCRABBLE Championship held this weekend in Providence at the Rhode Island Convention Center. A team from the Ridgefield Library in Ridgefield, Conn. won the 2007 National School SCRABBLE Championship. Aune (pronounced Ow-na) Mitchell, 14 of Ridgefield, Conn. and her teammate Matthew Silver, 13 of Westport, Conn. walked away with $5,000. During the final Championship round, the Connecticut team defeated Joey Krafchick, 12 of Roswell, Ga. and Dorian Hill, 13 of Lithonia, Ga. This year's competition had a new twist: ESPN will telecast the Championship as kids head back to school in late August/September 2007. SCRABBLE, the world's most popular crossword game, combines the vocabulary skills of crossword puzzles and anagrams, with the additional element of chance. A family favorite since 1948, the board game today is found in one out of every three homes, according to Hasbro, makers of the SCRABBLE game in the United States and Canada. "Kids everywhere, from all parts of the country, and from all walks of life, love to play SCRABBLE because it's challenging, fun and allows the kids to be creative," says John D. Williams, Jr., executive director, National SCRABBLE Association. "It's not unusual for competitors of this event to have been competing against adults -- and beating them - -in SCRABBLE tournaments across the country." Word Play: Let the Games Begin Teams of 5-8 grade students from the Oregon to Florida competed, playing in teams of two in the tournament.
