He said in tournament chess there may be 100 peo ple in attendance, “ but you can hear a pin drop” Which brings us back to the Sandy team "They're probably the noisiest chess players I've ever had," Ford said. "They talk, they chatter And chess is usual ly thought of as the other way." But if they're energetic, they're not uncontrollable, Ford is quick to point out, adding that "brightness and competitiveness" are what a coach looks for in chess players Ford and Mike Kostrba, ath letic d irec to r, have somewhat of a running bat tle going Ford jokingly wonders when they're going to get cheerleia'ers, and Kostrba ponders the question of how much to charge spectators "He refers to it as a game and not a sport," Ford said.
