Marc Arnold Wins U.S. Junior

IM Marc Arnold and FM Alec Getz won their qualifying sections in the 2012 U.S. Junior Championship, and then settled things in a two-game title match. Game 1 was drawn last night, and today Arnold won on the white side of a King's Indian to take the title. He thereby qualifies for both the next U.S. Championship and the World Junior Championship.
Congratulations!
