About This was his second match in his first varsity wrestling tournament. As a freshman, he was wrestling experienced and strong young men. He lost this match, but finished 6th out of 18 in his weight class. He and I were pleased with his effort and results. For those who have never witnessed a high school wrestling tournament, it is an experience like no other. The respect for your opponent, determination, emotion, and athletic ability are wonderful to see.

I wrestled when I was in High School (Lo, these many years ago!). You are correct...it is an amazing sport. Every young man should be able to experience the solitude of the mat and the total independence of one on one competition. I hope your son stays with the sport. He'll never regret it!

It's a great photo, too. Captures the emotional aspect of feeling thoses shoulders on the mat and hearing the referee call the "pin." Bad feeling but a great character builder.

This photo has a great emotional appeal, besides being a good actio sports shot! Wrestling is a great sport to photo with lots of emotion from the athletes - but it all happens REALLY fast! Great job with this capture and congratulations to your son. If he sticks with it, he'll be in great shape!!! Regards, Dan
