Greetings to all the Membership,
It was very gratifying to have the privilege of taking our Regional JO’s and Sr. Champions to compete at the Region 8 State Championship Tournament in El Paso, Texas. I would like to thank the entire team which includes the Non-Athletes, Parents, Supporters, Officials and the Athletes for making this event a great success. This was a great display of teamwork by the members of the Gulf Association. There were no major incidents and everyone made it back home safely.
As far as the results of the tournament we ended up with four JO Intermediate Champions, they include:
Timothy Longoria 75 lbs King of Kings
Gilbert Renteria 85 lbs Unattached
Miguel Banda 90 lbs Young Prospects
Kassandra Acosta 162 lbs Top Dog
In the JO Senior Division we had seven Champions, they include:
Roscoe Hill 90 lbs Boss Boxing
Gilbert Llamas 101 lbs Eastside
O’Shanique Foster 125 lbs Golden Triangle Boxing
Adrian Jimenez 145 lbs Soldiers of Christ Boxing
Maria Arreola 106 lbs Freeport Boxing
Victoria Quilanta 114 lbs Main Gym
Diana Martinez 125 lbs Eastside Boxing
In the Senior Open Division (17-34) we had four Champions, they included:
Regis Prograis 152 lbs Savannah
Jamal Pickett 178 lbs Savannah
Marlen Esparza 112 lbs Elite Boxing
Jessica Ordonez 119 lbs Savannah

We ended up with a total of fifteen Champions and that is quite an accomplishment. I also would like to recognize those individuals that worked very hard during the tournament, they include:
Hylon Williams, Clara Savannah, Aaron Navarro, Karim Ali, Ramon Sosa, Napoleon Gonzalez, Martin Arreola, Nolberto Blanco, Randy Horn, Pat Ramirez, Ramon Ontiveros, Jesus Perez and several more of the Personal Coaches. Special thanks to Nolberto Blanco for the use of his van, to Randy Horn and Pat Ramirez for making the long drive to El Paso transporting some of our boxers.
All in all it was a job well done. Our next major goal is to send our advancing Champions to the JO Nationals in Camp Lejune, NC, our Senior Open Champions to the 2010 Nationals in Colorado Springs, CO and bring home the gold and National Titles. Good luck to everyone.
In closing I leave you with this quote: “I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is to try to please everyone.” Quote by: Bill Cosby.
