Lafayette boxers beat the odds again The late, great Sherman DePew would have been proud of the Lafayette Boxing Club. For the second time in the past three years, the Lafayette fighters won the team title at the Indiana Golden Gloves Championships in Indianapolis. DePew coached the Twin Cities Boxing Club, which eventually morphed into the Lafayette Boxing Club. DePew had a big heart and genuinely cared for his young fighters. As a teenager, Terry Christian trained with DePew. Christian has said many times that being a boxer kept him out of trouble. Christian has faithfully carried on DePew’s ideals as the coach of the Lafayette Boxing Club.
