For the first sic years of his tenure in Ames, head coach Matt Campbell achieved national acclaim. The Cyclones knocked off numerous top-5 teams. They won home games and away games. But the one thing that escaped Campbell was a win over the Iowa Hawkeyes. That changed last year when Iowa State defeated Iowa 7-3 in Iowa City.
Now the Hawkeyes look to avenge that loss. But there are new names and faces in both Iowa City and in Ames. So it’s time to familiarize ourselves with the Iowa State Cyclones in advance of Saturday’s Cy-Hawk showdown.
