DES MOINES, Iowa — Iowa is out to recapture the CyHawk Trophy when it visits Jack Trice Stadium in Ames to meet Iowa State.
The Cyclones (1-0) ended a six-game losing streak in the series with a 10-7 win in Iowa City last year. The Hawkeyes (1-0) dropped out of the Top 25 following a so-so performance against Utah State. ISU posted a convincing win over Northern Iowa in its opener.
An ISU victory would add to the confidence of a team that entered the season reeling from losing five projected starters in a gambling sting.
