“एक बार फिर,” न्यू इंग्लैंड गोल्डन दस्ताने कार्यकारी निदेशक बॉबी रूसो कहा, “it was a great tournament with so many good, competitive matches. We had the biggest crowd of the season turnout for the finals. The draw was done by computer, so the marches were nice and fair. I really liked the way these boxers were matched. The fans here in Lowell have been appreciated for a long time watching good fights and we plan to keep that rich tradition going.”

Western New England bantamweight Nathan Martinez, जो हराया Joseph Valdez on points last night, was named the recipient of the Thomas Costello Memorial Award as the Most Outstanding Boxer.

Norther New England lightweight Liz Leddy won her sixth All-New England title with a close points win over Kelsay Kaiser, while three-time National Golden Gloves champion Rashidi एलिस (सेंट्रल न्यू इंग्लैंड), who is the No. 2 rated lightweight in the United States, took a decision against defending N.E. समर्थक Lyndsay Kyajohnian.

“New England will be sending a strong team to the National Golden Gloves,” Russo added. “We may only have three female boxers going to The Nationals, but each one of them have won national tournaments. Anyone of the male boxers on Team New England could win at The Nationals. I think Elvis (Figueroa), Yarmarco (गुज़मान) व Josnieएल (कास्त्रो). I will offer the Team New England head coaching position to लुइस रोजा from the winning Western New England team. We’ll also be brining कार्लोस गार्सिया (veteran coach from Worcester), who will be inducted into the National Golden Gloves Hall of Fame.)
