♟️🏆 A Top 100 National Ranking!

Third Coast Chess is proud to congratulate Lincoln Samples on earning a place among the Top 100 chess players in the nation for his age!

In the October 2026 US Chess rankings, Lincoln is ranked:

🇺🇸 #82 – Age 15

This is a tremendous milestone and a testament to the countless hours of study, practice, and tournament competition that go into becoming a stronger chess player.

Lincoln’s accomplishment is also a reminder of what’s possible for young chess players right here in the Coastal Bend.

Congratulations, Lincoln! Well earned! ♟️
