Former Cyclones sign contracts
Former ISU football players, Reggie Hayward and Sage
Rosenfels, have signed NFL contracts with their respective
teams.
Hayward, a defensive end, was a third-round pick of the Denver
Broncos in the 2001 NFL Draft.
He led the Cyclones a year ago in tackles with 90 while totaling
seven sacks on the season.
Rosenfels, the starting quarterback on the Cyclone’s Insight.com
Bowl team, was drafted in the fourth round by the Washington
Redskins.
He threw for over 4,000 yards over his final two seasons at Iowa
State while leading the Cyclones to a bowl win over Pittsburgh.
Both players are currently in training camp with their teams.
Football team adds recruit
ISU football has gained one more recruit in the recruiting class of
2002.
Fort Dodge senior, Seth Zehr, has verbally committed to Iowa
State.
The 6-foot-6, 240-pound offensive lineman was the fourth Iowan to
commit in the 2002 class.
McCarney’s 2001 recruiting class includes three from Iowa.
Zehr settled on Iowa State after being offered scholarships from
Iowa and Northern Iowa. Nebraska and Kansas State had also
expressed interest in Zehr.
McCarney inks one more recruitIn an effort to bring in
more size, the head football coach Dan McCarney has added one
more recruit for this coming season.
Dwayne Johnson, a defensive lineman from San Jose City
College in California, will have two years of eligibility remaining for
the Cyclones.
The 6-foot-3, 330 pound lineman joined the team this summer
after being a two-year starter at SJCC.
Johnson is on scholarship at Iowa State and was signed in an
apparent effort to replace James Reed and Ryan Harklau from the
Cyclones 2001 defensive line.
Doctors buy old hockey ice rink
The old ISU hockey rink may have found a new home.
Two Fort Dodge doctors bought the rink piece by piece from Iowa
State last week and plan to relocate it to Fort Dodge.
The pieces include the plexiglas sides used for protection, the
boards used to keep the puck on the ice and the rubber
flooring.
The two men, Randy Minion and Lynn Lyons, plan to team with the
new Fort Dodge Hockey Association in order to construct a new
rink.
