लॉवेल, मास. (मार्च 3, 2017) – Western New England won its fourth consecutive New England Tournament of Champions open class team title last night in the grand finale of the 71st annual Lowell Sun Charities Golden Gloves Championship, at historic Lowell Memorial Auditorium.

Western NE had seven individual winners to earn the Bill Hoar Memorial Award as the Most Outstanding Team. Northern New England finished second with three individual winners and Central New England had two.

“पुन्हा एकदा,” New England Golden Gloves Executive Director बॉबी Russo म्हणाला,, “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, who defeated 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 (मध्य न्यू इंग्लंड), who is the No. 2 rated lightweight in the United States, took a decision against defending N.E. विजेता Lyndsay Kyajohnian.

Western New England light heavyweight Elivis Figueroa captured his third All-New England crown. His teammate, हॅमटन मिलर (खाली चित्रित), बंद Sean Gabriel in the second round to win the Rocky Marciano Memorial Award as the Most Outstanding Heavyweight Boxer.

Last night’s open-class winners qualified to be members of Team New England at the National Golden Gloves Championships for men in Lafayette, लुईझियाना (मे) and women in Ft. Lauderdale, फ्लोरिडा (जुलै).

.

“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 (Guzman) आणि Josnieनाम (कॅस्ट्रो). I will offer the Team New England head coaching position to लुईस रोझा from the winning Western New England team. We’ll also be brining कार्लोस Garcia (veteran coach from Worcester), who will be inducted into the National Golden Gloves Hall of Fame.)
