The site will provide a link to all the photos I take at various wrestling events at various levels. The main focus is Ryle High School and other Kentucky Region 6 teams as well as the University of Wisconsin wrestling team. I am also willing to take photos of other teams or at other events... even other sports if anyone is interested. I do not claim to be a professional at this... it is my hobby and I am learning new things each time I shoot an event.
I will make an effort to promote any information or news concerning wrestling events, tournaments, etc. so if you would like to post something on this site, please send me an email and I'll get it listed. Check out the News & Events tab for the latest!
  
These are my boys... but if you have time, browse the Photo tab and there may be a photo or two of your boys.
There you will find photos of the latest events and a full gallery of past ones as well.

A Little About Me! 
As a little background... I began taking photos of my sons at wrestling matches. My husband is the head coach of Ryle High Schools wrestling program, my oldest son wrestled for Ryle and now is the head coach for Gray Middle School. Son number two wrestled for Gray Middle School, Ryle High School, and the University of Wisconsin. He is now coaching at the University. Son number three also wrestled for Gray Middle School and is currently wrestling for Ryle High School. I also have a daughter, but she doesn't wrestle (Dad is trying to get her into keeping stats). So when I say wrestling has consumed my life I think that's probably a pretty fair statement.
I had always enjoyed taking pictures and my camera was always with me at the matches. As I took photos of my boys I would have parents ask me to take pictures of their son because they had forgotten a camera or were too nervous to take photos of their own. I soon found myself taking more and more photos of the wrestlers on my son's high school team and presenting them to the kids or their parents. They were a hit. I also found it a great way to stay busy between my own son's matches and made the long days in the gym go much quicker... and the bleachers are not too comfy either. Each year I have expanded and grown my hobby, taking photos at as many Ryle High School and University of Wisconsin wrestling events I can attend. Last year I also took photos of all Kentucky Region 6 wrestlers at the Kentucky State Tournament. Photos are available to anyone interested... coaches, wrestlers, parents, KHSAA, and anyone else at no charge.
I have been honored to have my photos published several times on the University of Wisconsin's web site, the "Crossface Newspaper" (WI), and in an article in "TheAlternativePress.com," a New Jersey local news site. Several of them have also been used in online forums on "KentuckyWrestling.com" and in several parents photo albums.
Until recently all of my photos have been hosted and stored on Walgreens.com photo section. The purpose of this web site is to provide a more direct access to my photos. You will be able to order prints from a professional printing lab or down load prints as you were with Walgreens in the past. I hope you find this easier and some photos you and your athlete enjoy.
I encourage you to email me with any questions, comments, suggestions, etc. I will do my best to respond as quickly as possible to any questions or requests.
Thanks for taking the time to look at my site and photos.
Enjoy,
Pam Ruschell
