Boxers make strong showing
By Austin Smith
Boxing coach
Hard hitting boxers from
around the local USA amateur
boxing picture made their
hopes for the next match of
their future a litde easier by
putting on the gloves for all
us local boxing fans.
I saw the great man Rudy
Clements there, and over
there I spotted Jody Calica
along the ringside. Jeff Sand
ers was there with all his Na
tive dance makings on. He
looked good (sorry I didn't get
to see him dance, but, I'm
glad he checked out our 2003
Pi-Ume-Sha Treaty Days
sport of boxing.)
Everything started on time,
Indian time that is. We had a
hometown girl on leave from
the armed forces to help us
with the flag pledge. Thank
you WynterSky Smith for lead
ing us with The Pledge of
Allegiance to the Flag of the
United States of America, and
to the Republic for which it
Stands, One Nation under
God, Indivisible with Liberty
and Justice for All, amen.
The Warm Springs Boxing
club had three winners out of
four. Bout number three was
one that could have gone ei
ther way. Both fighters had a
lot of courage, and courage
is what makes a good batde.
Trevor Tewee did not get the
nod this time, but the next
time these two box, I'm sure
the scales will be fit for us to
win.
Trevor Tewee lost a close
one to Michael Sanchez of
Tri-Cities, Wash. Boxing Club
in the 147-pound weight class.
The next bout, No. 4, between
two experienced boxers,
Leonard AmericanHorse and
josh Silva, was a good con
test This was the third time
these two fellows have met,
and the third time 12-year-old
Coach Austin Smith gives
advice to young Leonard
American Horse. Left, Trevor
Tewee boxes Michael
Sanchez.
Josh Silva attempted to out
score the 10-year-old
AmericanHorse.
They always go for it though,
that's what the game is all about,
and the boxing fans gready en
joyed this match-up. They boxed
in the 75-pound weight class.
Bout No. 1 1 was his first time
boxing for the winner of this
match, and it was also consid
ered the best bout of the evening
at that. Warm Springs Boxing
Club introduced their 125
pound Rodney Kenyon to box
ing on Saturday night, June 28,
2003.
He boxed Beaverton PAL's
125-pound Jorge Rubjo, and it
was a good contest to the end.
There was much action, toe to
toe stuff, if you know what I
mean. Each opponent wanting
the win and each pushing one

another to the limit of fitness,
causing the drama in the crowd
to take over the fight tempo. A
good win for Rodney Kenyon.
When you've made a better place
to be, it'll always be your friend.
Our final and main event
Oavt McMfchanSpilyay
the Beaverton PAL Boxing
Club by stopping him in the
third round for the 110
pound weight class of this
year's Pi-Ume-Sha boxing.
Thanking you all for the
support for our athletes and
bout for the evening showed "the greater Support for bur'
what two years of hard work men and women in uniform
and no temptations can do for during Pi-Ume-Sha time,
a young boxer. Wesley Graybael Stand free and God bless our
out-boxed Leonardo Veldez of land for we are the land.
