AMES, Iowa --King and his court captured the jewel of traveling crowns Saturday, invading Jack Trice Stadium and bringing the Cy-Hawk Trophy back to shiny, new Stew and LeNore Hansen Football Performance Center in Iowa City.
And they did it playing with heaviness in the heart. On Tuesday, University of Iowa great Tyler Sash passed away at the age of 27. A native Iowan, Sash thrived on and in the Iowa Corn Cy-Hawk Series against rival Iowa State.
He would have smiled with this outcome.
Trailing 17-10 at halftime, the Hawkeyes ground out a game-tying touchdown in the third quarter, then erupted for 14 points in the final 2 minutes, 14 seconds to come away with a 31-17 victory over Iowa State.
