Illinois State Unversity Redbirds Football & Volleyball

It was the weekend for home openers of Redbird Football and Redbird Volleyball at Illinois State University this Labor Day weekend.  The festivities started off with Volleyball's Redbird Classic beginning on Friday in Redbird Arena.  The Arena has a new floor this year.  The weekend for these two sports also ended there with Illinois State Volleyball Redbirds losing to the Oregon State Beavers in 5 sets.  On a positive note, the temps in the arena were very reasonable this year compared to several of the past seasons.

Bloomington - Normal Illinois InterCity Football

The intercity games were played on Friday night.  As most know, they were moved to NCHS and CCHS this year due to the renovation work that has begun on Hancock Stadium at Illinois State University.   Best Look Magazine covered the 1st have of each game.  We had to cut it short because of the uninvited but welcomed rain from the remnants of Hurricane Isaac.   John Power Photography covered the University High Pioneers and the Central Catholic Saints.   Alan Look Photography covered the Bloomington High School Purple Raiders and the Normal Community Ironmen.  Images will be available on each photographers website.  If you don't see them, check back later.
