With ISU volleyball’s win over Iowa on Sept. 20, the Cyclones lead the Iowa Corn Cy-Hawk Series 7-0 — the first time since the series started in 2004 that a school has won all of the first three events. Here are this year’s results so far:

  • ISU soccer breaks streak to defeat Iowa: The Cyclones overcame a 1-0 deficit in the second half to take down the Hawkeyes 2-1 in front of a record crowd of 2,090 at the Cyclone Sports Complex in Ames. It was the team’s first win over the Hawkeyes since 2005. (Iowa State leads 2-0).
  • Cole Netten and Cyclones win thriller over Hawkeyes: Down 14-3 in the second half, the Cyclones stormed back to outscore the Hawkeyes 17-3 the rest of the game. Cole Netten drilled a 42-yard field goal with two seconds remaining to upset the Hawkeyes in Iowa City. Iowa State has won three of the last four football games against Iowa. (Iowa State leads 5-0).
  • ISU volleyball sweeps Iowa in tight sets: Iowa State swept Iowa in straight sets Sept. 20, but it didn’t win without a fight. The Cyclones fought back to defeat the Hawkeyes 25-23 in the first set en route to Christy Johnson-Lynch’s ninth straight win over Iowa. (Iowa State leads 7-0).

Iowa State is aiming to be the first school to win the Cy-Hawk Series in back-to-back years.
