LOWELL, Masse. (Februar 16, 2018) – Fourteen novice division champions were crowned at last night’s championship finals of the New England Tournament of Champions, part of the 72nd annual New England Golden Gloves Championships, last night at historic Lowell Memorial Auditorium.

Western New England captured top honors in team standings with eight individual winners, followed by Central New England (5), Northern New England (1) and Southern New England (0).

East Walpole bantamweight Noelle Boran was named Most Outstanding Boxer.

The action shifts next week, Onsdag og Torsdag evenings, henholdsvis, to the semifinals and finals of the New England Tournament of Champions at Lowell Memorial Auditorium. Se den komplette 2018 liste over begivenheder nedenfor samt sidste nats fuldstændige resultater.

“It was very difficult to select the Most Outstanding Boxer because there were five who could have won,” N. Og. Executive Director Bobby Russo sagde. Noelle won but Nelson Perez, Shane Jordan, Kate Zahr og Jessie Batanda were all in the running. We had some great bouts and surprisingly good talent for the novice division.

“I’m really looking forward to next week’s All-New England open division semifinals and championship finals. People should buy tickets in advance, so they don’t get caught in long lines and miss some early bouts. We’re expecting large crowds both night.”
