Thanks Jon. I used a Canon 1D Mark 3 along with a 70-200mm f/2.8 for most of the shots. I used flash the first day, but the last two days I went without.

Thanks man. You are spot on about the expressions. There is a lot that goes into these guys getting to where they can win a state title. A lot of them have been around wrestling programs since they were young and have probably had goals of winning state for as long as they have been wrestling. So when they finally achieve it, you’ll see all kinds of reactions from screaming, flexing, crying, exhaling, basically any emotion one could think of.

Great shots… what an “expressive” sport! The looks on those guys’ faces… wow. The black and white one was my favorite! Great shots Derek!
