History:

Earlier this year the Sheriff's Office was ready to compete in another Law Enforcement Boxing Event. Due to time constraints & scheduling conflicts, EPCSO had no choice but to withdraw from the event. Several EPCSO fighters who were training for that event still wanted to compete & assist in helping charitable organizations in town such as the March of Dimes.

It was during this time when individuals within the organization began making calls trying to figure out how they can compete for a good cause. Before long, the plan was in place, the venue was set and all arrangements were made.

Since then, 13 Sheriff's Office Employees (Deputies & Detention Officers) have been training hard & coming together as one to make this event successful.

According to EPCSO Boxing Coordinator / Trainer - Detention Office Luis Trevino;

"It has been very rewarding to see us work like a team - both Detention & Law Enforcement. Not only are we doing it for charity but at the same time, we are creating & building a great bond. Each boxer has been training since September 2009. Every Tuesday we have been meeting at the SO Training Academy & putting hard hours in preparing for NOVEMBER 14, 2009. If we were not training at the Academy, we were training at local gyms, like Armijo, Carolina Center CENTER…..fighters for this event were not only training long hours but also had to adjust their eating habits while maintaining a strict diets. I really hope the Office & Community comes out and supports our team at this year's CLASH OF THE TITANS."
