It's that time of year again when Iowa State fans from all over the Midwest converge on Kansas City to revel in the annual orgy of Cardinal and Gold. If you have not yet attended the Big 12 tournament, I highly recommend that you do so one day, it truly defies description. The last two tournaments ended with Fred Hoiberg and his squad cutting down the nets and hoisting the Big 12 Trophy on the midcourt stage. Neither of those teams was considered a favorite to win it all. As a matter of fact, it took comebacks of epic proportions to win several of those games. The Cardiac Clones have kept us entertained and thrilled us over these past two or three years. Eventually they will run out of luck and go home without the hardware. Could this be the year? Perhaps so. Perhaps not. Only time will tell if they can win three in a row in Coach Prohm's KC debut. Regardless of how the team does in KC this year, they are most likely going to settle into a four seed in the NCAA tournament next week. There are a lot of possible scenarios for where we will play, far too many to discuss in this forum. Rest assured that we will keep you abreast of our plans whether they be gamewatches or live game events in Oklahoma City or elsewhere. Enjoy the ride, March Madness is underway and you have a ticket.
Cys Day of Service
Celebrate Iowa State by Serving your Community
Cy's Days of Service is designed to unite alumni worldwide in community service during the month of April. This month of service is a great opportunity to help spread the pride alumni have in ISU, recognize the combined efforts of all alumni that have had a tremendous impact on local communities and show how ISU alumni change the world.
In 2015, 459 alumni gave 3878 hours to their communities representing 28 states.
This year DFW Cyclones are getting back in on the action!
Have you ever wished that you could somehow give back to those policemen, firemen, EMTs and others that give of themselves every day? Here is your chance to do just that while representing Iowa State. Volunteer Now of Dallas can use our help at their Discount Depot! This event is open to all ISU Alumni and Friends. Please wear an ISU shirt if possible and join us.
We will be sorting merchandise and helping in the store at VolunteerNow’s Dallas location of Donated Goods Discount Depot (2800 Live Oak Street, Dallas 75204). This retail store provides nonprofits access to items donated by area retailers for sale at a fraction of retail cost. Donors of new, surplus, and gently used items include generous corporate supporters such as JCPenney, Sam’s Club, Target, and many more. Shopping at Donated Goods is open to VolunteerNow’s member nonprofits, as well as local school district employees, police officers, firefighters, EMTs, military personnel, and veterans.
After the event we will host a party/cook out with food and drinks provided by the club and the host family. Details of the party will be made available to all who attend the volunteer opportunity in the morning. The party will start as soon as we leave Volunteer Now.
