Collegiate Go League Off to “Stellar” New Season

The Collegiate Go League (CGL) started its new season last Saturday with a “stellar” launch. “We had many close matches, a simul with American pro Andy Liu 1P, and an incredible final game which went 362 moves!,” reports organizer Cole Pruitt.

Thirteen schools are competing in two leagues, with players in 'A' league competing for a spot in the year-end National College Championship next April. Open any university-affiliated go players and clubs in North America, “Last year's defending champions, University of Michigan, continue to field a strong team, but we're expecting to see some competition from other perennial strong teams like University of Toronto,” says Pruitt. Click here for full results and game records. The next round is in two weeks, on Saturday October 5. Games are played on KGS, in the Collegiate Go League room, under 'Tournaments'.
