SOU Wrestling

I’m a big fan of Sumo Wrestling. I have attended live matches about a half dozen times while in Japan, and I watch Youtube videos of every tournament as the tournaments progress (every other month in Japan). However, I’ve never watched “regular” wrestling–not on TV, not live–until this past weekend.

This past weekend I watched my first ever non-sumo wrestling at SOU. The #2 ranked Raiders easily rolled over their opponents from Menlo College.

Wrestling is a horrible sport for photography. There is one light in the center of the mat, and the rest of the arena is darkness. I took a few hundred photos, but ended up deleting about 90% of them.
