The Iowa State Cyclones are the athletic teams of Iowa State University. The university is a member of the Big 12 Conference and competes in NCAA Division I, fielding 16 varsity teams (6 men's and 10 women's teams) in 12 sports. The "Cyclones" name dates back to 1895. That year, Iowa suffered an unusually high number of devastating cyclones (as tornadoes were called at the time). In September, the football team from what was then Iowa Agricultural College traveled to Northwestern University and defeated that team by a score of 36-0. The next day, the Chicago Tribune's headline read "Struck by a Cyclone: It Comes from Iowa and Devastates Evanston Town."[2] The article began, "Northwestern might as well have tried to play football with an Iowa cyclone as with the Iowa team it met yesterday." The nickname stuck.

Overview

Iowa State's Athletic Director, Jamie Pollard (2005–present), has changed the direction of the athletic program. Since his arrival, Pollard has replaced two head coaches in football and wrestling, and has also replaced coaches in men's basketball, gymnastics, soccer, cross country/track and field, women's golf, tennis, and softball. He has dramatically increased the athletic budget and has improved player academics. Additionally, he has initiated major renovations to Hilton Coliseum[3] and Jack Trice Stadium,[4] and constructed a basketball practice facility.[5]

Until recently, Pollard did have critics that pointed to poor team performances in men's basketball and football. With Pollard's hires of Paul Rhoads in football and Fred Hoiberg in men's basketball, these concerns have diminished as Iowa State is enjoying increased success on both the football field and basketball floor. Pollard's supporters point out the improved facilities, the better patron interaction, and that the increased ticket prices are only average compared to other Big 12 schools.

Baseball

Club sports

Baseball

ISU baseball was cut by the school's athletic department in 2000; but it continues, as a club sport, to provide students with the opportunity to attend ISU and play competitive baseball.

Ice Hockey

Iowa State Men's Hockey is non-scholarship sport since it is not considered a recreational sport like other club sports. ISU has played in the Division I Central States Collegiate Hockey League conference since 1979, which is part of the American Collegiate Hockey Association (ACHA). The team has been a powerhouse since its inception, has many ACHA Frozen Four appearances, and was the ACHA National Champion in 1992.

Rugby

The Iowa State Rugby Club plays college rugby in Division IAA in the Heart of America conference against many of Iowa State's traditional athletic rivals such as Missouri and Kansas State. ISU Rugby has made huge strides on and off the field in recent years behind Coach Malcolm Robertson and under Club Presidents Anthony Frein, Matthew Vermillion, and Matthew Kriha. Most recently, they were selected to play in the round of 16 during the 2014 USA Rugby National Championships. They finished the year as one of the top 12 teams in Division IAA. [24]

Rivalries

ISU's victory bell

Iowa State's most heated rival is the University of Iowa Hawkeyes. The two teams first played each other in 1894 (in football). The Cy-Hawk Trophy was introduced in 1977 when the two teams met for the first time since 1934. The trophy is awarded to the victor of the annual football game. The trophy features a football player, with the Cyclone's and Hawkeye's logos.[25]

Started in 2004, the annual Hy-Vee Cy-Hawk Series gives points to the Hawkeyes and Cyclones based on wins in 11 sports and academic achievement. Each team is awarded 2 points for a win (except football which gets 3 points), 1 point for a tie, and 2 points for having athletes average GPA better than national average. At the end of the year the team with the most points wins the series for that year and bragging rights.[26]

Iowa State also has a rivalry with the University of Missouri Tigers. When the coaches’ field phones were tested prior to the 1959 Iowa State-Missouri football game in Ames, Iowa, it was found that the teams could hear one another. The problem was solved by game time, but not without considerable worry on the part of the coaching staff. The Northwestern Bell Telephone Company of Ames had a trophy made after the field phone controversy and it continues to be presented today to the winner of the game between ISU and Mizzou.[27]

Traditions

Mascot

Main article: Cy the Cardinal
Cy during a football game

Iowa State uses a cardinal, Cy, as its mascot instead of an actual tornado or Cyclone. Prior to the football match up against the University of Colorado on November 12, 2005 a tornado touched down in Ames, Iowa and forced fans to either stand out in the parking lot and watch the storm or flee to shelter in Hilton Coliseum. It created such an atmosphere that Iowa State was able to win over the favored Buffaloes 30–16. When asked about the event, Colorado coach Gary Barnett said, "I thought we had a pretty good mascot. But when we showed up at Iowa State and they had a real tornado, that's the real deal."

Colors

     Cardinal
     Gold

Originally silver, yellow, and black, the school colors were changed to cardinal and gold in 1899 to make dyeing sweaters easier. A council was formed in October 1899 with the purpose of finding new colors that would be suitable for sweaters. The council reported in favor of cardinal sweaters with gold lettering.[28] According to cyclones.com (Iowa State Athletics official website), the Iowa State teams were originally known as the "Cardinals",[29] though there is no other evidence to support it, it is assumed that the cardinal color was derived from the original team name.
