May Issue 2014 - Best Look Magazine

Two years ago, the idea for Best Look Magazine was launched.  A Central Illinois, Bloomington Normal based sports and leisure magazine to feature local athletics, athletes, travel, and entertainment.  August 2012 saw the first issue published.

The magazine has a motto of a photo for every story, a story for every photo. The magazine is a product of Alan Look Photography and featured stories and photos by Alan Look and John Power.  John has been on a hiatus for a few issues, but Alan carries on.

This issue contains more text for the readers in our following, more great photos of Bloomington Normal and McLean County Sports, a Double Cover - a great image on both the front and the back, and a short editorial on the freelance sports photography business.  This issue continues the tradition of a photo feature of Referees, Umpires and other officials that has been a constant in all the previous issues.

We thank all our followers, supporters, readers and especially our past, present, and future contributors and advertisers.

Check out the magazine at http://bestlookmag.com/ .  It's free to read online and a free electronic download is available.  If you like what you see online, the experience is only better when you buy and issue and see all those images in full color printed on premium paper via an Indigo Press.

Redbird Classic - a real winner!

Illinois State University Redbird Women's Volleyball hosted a 4 team volleyball this past weekend.  Participating visiting teams were #7 ranked Marquette Golden Eagles, #7 ranked University or Illinois Fighting Illini and the Knights from the University of Central Florida.  Events kicked off on Friday evening with the Knights and Golden Eagles followed by ISU v the Illini.  Both those matches went 4 sets with Golden Eagles defeating the Knights and ISU upsetting the Illini! On Saturday UCF took on the Illini in a morning match.  The Illini fell once again moving their record in the tournament to 0-2 and setting UCF's record to 1-1.  The evening matchups included a 5:30 match between UCF and Illinois State and the nightcap was Marquette and the Illini.  Both matches went 5 sets, both thrillers with ISU taking the win over UCF and the Illini besting Marquette. Sunday afternoon, the final match between Marquette and Illinois State was nothing short of epic...

Football season gets started with ISU Redbird Red-White Scrimmage

The local football season kicked off today with the Illinois State Redbird Red-White scrimmage.  A healthy combination of fans and students attended the event and the preliminary activities which included the annual student promo photo on the field in Hancock Stadium with the Big Red Marching Machine, cheerleaders, flag corp, and Redline Dancers forming ISU all wearing red shirts. High School football will follow in 13 days with the first Friday Lights games. Get out this fall, support your local teams and see some of the great talent that passes through our communities!

12-13-2024 Normal Community West High School Wildcats Basketball defeated by Richwood Knights

  From my chair, the West v Richwoods varsity boys basketball game looked closer than it ended up. West fell short on a 50-36 game. West has what seems to be an unusually young bunch of ballers with just 3 seniors on the team. Two or three of the starters for this game were sophomores and very hard working young men!
