NAKOPO ni International Master John Marvin Miciano ang limang medalya sa pag-agapay ng Go-for-Gold sa 20th Asean Age Group Chess Championships sa Mandalay, Myanmar.

Nakasungkit muna ang reigning Asian youth champion ng silver medal sa stand­ard event bago naka-golden finish at nanguna sa blitz team event kasama ang youth standouts na sina Melito Ocsan Jr. at John Merill Jacutina.

Nagtapos nang may 7.5 points matapos ang 9 rounds para sa 2nd place sa likod ng boys standard champion na si IM Anh Khoi Nguyen (8.5 pts), naka-bronze din si Miciano sa individual blitz at kasama sa puwersa sina Ocsan at Jacutina para sa silver sa team rapid event. “Marvin has done a great job. Despite his youth, he has accomplished a lot,’’ ayon kay Go For Gold godfather Jeremy Go. “We hope that with our support, he can continue to go for gold.’’

Sa ilan nang tagumpay niya noong 2018, pinaranga­lan si Miciano ng Davao City Sports Council bilang Davao City’s male athlete of the year sa So Kim Cheng Awards noong Hulyo 26. “While it’s nice to win as many medals in international tournaments, my real objective is to earn a GM norm to boost my quest to become a grandmaster,’’ tuwang sabi ni Miciano, na naging impresibo ang performance sa Myanmar habang ang ibang team ay silver sa stand­ard event.

Isa sa most promising athletes sa ilalim ng Go For Gold program, isang fast learner si Miciano, naging national master sa edad 16-anyos at itinanghal na Fide master ng 2019.

Ginawaran ng World Chess Federation si Micia­no ng IM title nang pagwa­gian ang 2018 Asian Youth U-18 Chess Championships sa Thailand.
