LOWELL, Mass. (Februari 26, 2016) – Western New England dominated the open class finals of the New England Tournament of Champions, part of the 70ke- annual Lowell Sun Charities Golden Gloves Championship, winning seven of 10 matches last night at historic Lowell Memorial Auditorium.
The eight men’s individual open class winners earned spots on Team New England for the 2016 National Golden Gloves Championships, Mei 16-21, di Salt Lake City, Utah. Team New England includes two of the top ranked boxers in the country, kelas berat ringan Elvis Figueroa and light welterweight Jaime Ortiz Rodriguez (repeat NE champion), both members of N.E. open class team champion from Western NE. Burlington, MA featherweight Amanda Pavone captured her sixth NE. tajuk.
In the last 10 tahun,” explained New England Golden Gloves Executive Director Bobby Russo, “we hadn’t been on a good run. Attendance dropped off a little each year. Last year’s horrible weather killed us. Tahun ini, walaupun, the excitement was back and attendance was up 30-percent. There was a younger crowd and many novice boxers had good fan bases, which we need to build up every year. We had a lot of good fights and good boxers this year. Boxing is back in Lowell! We had a great season.
Team New England will be very strong. We have a young team but many of these boxers have a lot of invaluable experience from Junior Olympics competition, from heavyweight on down. I think we have an impressive team that will do very well at The Nationals this year.
Team champions were Western N.E. in the open class, Central N.E. in the novice class.
Three New England novice champions were also crowned last night. See complete results below as well as more pictures.
Hasil daripada Charities Lowell Sun Golden Gloves Championship pergi ke arah menghantar New England Golden Gloves juara kepada sarung tangan Negara Golden Championship, di samping menyokong atlet tempatan dan gimnasium kawasan, kanak-kanak lelaki & Girls Club, dapur jalanan, perlindungan tempat tinggal, dana kanser, biasiswa dan lain-lain kebajikan hebat.
