D1 Fan 9 Report post Posted March 20, 2010 Unfortunately Richard lost his 3rd match. He wrestled tough but seems a little sluggish and not his usual level of intensity. I'm sure his health concerns impacted his performance... still very proud of him and I have some pictures of him. You can check them out on www.bluegrasswrestling.com Right now they are on the featured gallery but I will pull them out and put them in a separate gallery when I have time.Enjoy!

D1 Fan 9 Report post Posted March 24, 2010 Here's the link to Richard's photos from the NCAA's. I was only able to catch one of his matches... and the set up they had for shooting the inner 4 mats was terrible. We had to shoot across the side mats to get the inner mats... they only let us shoot from the long sides of the arena... so they are not as good as I would have liked... but hopefully he and/or his family will enjoy them. If anyone has contact info for him please let me know or pass this along to him.Thanks!Here's the direct link to the gallery with his photos. http://bluegrasswrestling.smugmug.com/KY-College-Wrestling Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
