Iowa Corn Cy-Hawk Series


The Iowa Corn Cy-Hawk Series is an annual athletic competition between Iowa State University and the University of Iowa. On April 12, 2011, it was announced that the competition would be sponsored by the Iowa Corn Promotion Board and the Iowa Corn Growers Association. From 2004–2011, it was sponsored by Hy-Vee and called the Hy-Vee Cy-Hawk Series. The competition includes all head-to-head regular season competitions between the two archrival universities in all shared sports. After clinching the latest title in December of 2019, The University of Iowa leads the series 8-7.

Competition format

Each regular-season game, match, or meet between the Iowa State Cyclones and the Iowa Hawkeyes is counted toward the series championship. The winning team in each sport earns two points for their university. In the event that a contest ends in a tie, the points are split. For academics, each school earns a single point if the graduation rate for student athletes exceeds the overall student body rate. The university with the most overall points at the end of the academic year is awarded the Iowa Corn Cy-Hawk Series Trophy. If both schools tie on points at the end of the academic year, the school that won the trophy the previous year keeps the series trophy.

History

The Cy-Hawk Series Trophy originated in 2004. Iowa and Iowa State currently have seven titles each, and Iowa State with one defense in a tie. The two schools tied the series in 2015-16 with Iowa State defending the trophy for another year.
