Last weekend, the team from the State University of Management confidently made a name for itself in the qualifying round of the All-Russian Cup of the National Student Chess League.
The Rapid Chess Championship brought together 66 teams from Moscow universities and became a tense intellectual marathon, where every game could decide the outcome. Our masters passed the test with flying colors and took a respectable second place in the Moscow tournament standings, behind only athletes from Moscow State University. As a result, the current top three is: Moscow State University, State University of Management, and Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology.
It should be noted that the following true chess aces played for the State University of Management:
Danila Pavlov (IUPSIBK), Honored Master of Sports of Russia and FIDE International Grandmaster in chess composition solving, has seven wins and two draws. Sofia Ershova (IEF) has seven wins, one draw, and one loss. Leonid Malina (IIS) has four wins and one draw.
The final of the competition, supported by the Russian Student Sports Union (RSSU) and the Russian Chess Federation (RCF), will take place on November 15 and 16, 2025, at the Central House of Chess in Moscow. This is where the strongest team will be determined to win the country's premier student cup.
Congratulations to the guys on their success in the intermediate stage, and the whole university continues to root for our team—the fight for the chess crown is still ahead, let's go win!
