(COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO.) – 2011 National PAL Championships first round action kicked off in the men’s and women’s open division on Monday at the SeaGate Convention Center in Toledo, Ohio. The 2011 National PAL Championships will be the final qualifying tournament for the first-ever U.S. Olympic Team Trials for Women’s Boxing, tentatively slated for February.

First round action was contested in all three women’s Olympic weight classes on Monday night with bouts being taking place in the flyweight (112 lbs), lightweight (132 lbs) and middleweight (165 lbs) divisions as well as four men’s weight classes.

The top three boxers in each of the women’s Olympic weight divisions will earn berths in the Olympic Trials. Should an Olympic Team Trials qualified athlete finish in the top three at the National PAL Championships, the next highest finisher will win the Trials berth until there are eight qualified boxers in each Olympic weight division.

Preliminary action will continue at 6 p.m. ET on Tuesday with a full night of action on tap in Toledo. Tuesday’s bout sheets are attached.
