Sterling Gloves Boxing Tournament

A good bit of Saturday afternoon and evening my work focused on the 4th Annual Sterling Gloves Boxing Tournament, held again this year at Georgetown High School.   The tournament was begun by longtime boxing trainer and coach Herb Fulton, who oversees Eight Count Boxing Club.  This year, the event had grown enough to continue bouts on Sunday.  The photos you see here were all taken on Saturday for my friends at the Williamson County Sun.  Boxing is not a sport where I’ve ever been a participant, and it may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but I will say that those who train very hard at it are in better physical condition than the majority of our population.   They’re a determined lot.
