ICCF-US is pleased to announce the team for the 15th Olympiad Preliminary Round, also known as the 2nd Email Olympiad. Our team members are: 11th USCC Champion Timothy Murray, IM John C. Knudsen, IM Jason Bokar, IM Craig Jones, Michael Millstone, James Skeels. Our reserves are IM Ed Limayo and Corky Schakel. Alex Dunne will serve as our Team Captain.

Since last month's ICCF Congress in Portugal, John Knudsen has earned his SIM, and Michael Millstone and James Skeels have earned their IM's. These titles will be applied for and confirmed by the next Congress which will be held in The Czech Republic.

48 of the ICCF member countries have announced their intention to send teams for this Olympiad. The tournament is scheduled to start December 27, 2002. Starting information will be sent directly from the Title Tournaments Office around December 1st. This team has the honor and challenge of following in the footsteps of the 14th Olympiad Preliminary Team which scored well enough to make it to the Final Round.
