Members of the newly formed BU Academy chess club, including ninth graders Alex Teixeira (left) and Aaron Schein, tried to outwit their new coach, Larry Christiansen, who played all club members -- while blindfolded -- on September 12. Christiansen, considered one of the greatest attacking players in the history of American chess, is a U.S. Chess Federation grand master and former U.S. cochampion. He represented the United States eight times as a player in the biannual chess Olympiads and was captain of the 1988 U.S. team, which won a silver medal. Photo by Vernon Doucette
