Page 21 - The Best Academic Games Players of the 20th Century

Chris Trapani

Metarie, LA

"Chris Trapani is the greatest Presidents player Louisiana has ever produced and surely one of the best in the nation. He began winning Presidents championships in the third grade! However, he was an all-round player in the Jefferson Parish League and then in the New Orleans League after switching first to Country Day School, which had no AG program, and then to Ben Frank- lin High School. He had to discontinue academic games in his sophomore year because each afternoon he went to the New Orleans Center for the Creative Arts, which counts Wynton and Branford Marsalis and Harry Connick, Jr., among its illustrious graduates. He is now studying music composition at Harvard."
