Teen boxer brings home title

An 91ɫ High School student wins a national boxing recognition.

The 2024 USA Boxing women’s champion – in the 114 lbs. novice division – is a Falcon!

Nya Almodovar is just back from Lafayette, La. where she won every one of her fights in the three-day tournament, the last with a knockout!

Following the competition, and due to her steadfast showing in the national ring, USA Boxing recognized the 91ɫ High School tenth grader with an age division award, as well.

The USA Boxing Women’s National Championships showcases the strength and skill of female boxers in all age groups across the United States. This year, more than 150 female fighters participated.

Nya is coached by Jerrick Jones of 91ɫ Boxing on Quail Street.

Congratulations to Nya. The City School District of 91ɫ is incredibly proud of what you accomplished this summer!
