<div align="left"><strong>IOWA CITY, Iowa --</strong> <span>It
was a very good Friday and Saturday for the UNiversity of Iowa
Hawkeyes. Three events against their intrastate rivals in the
2015-16 Iowa Corn Cy-Hawk Series and three victories recorded.
Here's a look at each...</span></div>

Saturday, invading Jack Trice Stadium and bringing the

vspace="5" width="180"></a> And the Hawkeyes did it
playing with heaviness in the heart. On Tuesday,
University of Iowa great <a shape="rect"><span>Tyler Sash</span></a>
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. Every Iowa player wore Sash's No. 9 on the left
side of their helmet during the game. </span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>Sash would have flashed his trademark smile with
this outcome. </span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>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. </span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>"People outside the state don't know how
competitive this (rivalry) is," UI head coach <a
shape="rect"><span>Kirk Ferentz</span></a> said. "I'm
proud of our team; I thought they really grew in the
second half. We got tested, (Iowa State) played a great
first half, our guys rallied." </span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>Junior cornerback/punt returner <a shape="rect"><span>Desmond
King</span></a> struck twice in the final 6 ½ minutes
to put the Hawkeyes in position to take the lead and then
seal victory. His 34-yard punt return put the ball at
midfield with 6:08 left and set up a game-winning 25-yard
touchdown pass from junior quarterback <a shape="rect"><span>C.J.
Beathard</span></a> to junior wide receiver <a
shape="rect"><span>Riley McCarron</span></a> four
minutes later. It was McCarron's first catch of the
season. </span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>On the next Cyclone series, King stepped in front
of a pass from Sam B. Richardson that was intended for
Jauan Wesley that essentially sealed the final outcome. </span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>"That was a big, big play," Ferentz said of King's
punt return. "To get it (from the 6) out to midfield was
big." </span></div>

In front of the fifth largest crowd in program history, the

for the first time since Sept. 13, 1997. </span></div>

"It was a gritty, gutty win for us, especially right there at
the end," said UI head coach <a shape="rect"><span>Bond
Shymansky</span></a>. "I knew our group was not going to
fold up and go away at the end of that fourth set. They just
did such a fantastic job. </span></div>
<div align="left"><span> </span></div>
<div align="left"><span>"I'm a Hawkeye, I'm an Iowa alum, and I'm
a die-hard Hawkeye. I don't just work here I bleed black and
gold and so for us to beat the Cyclones at anything I get
excited." </span></div>
<div align="left"><span> </span></div>
<div align="left"><span>The Hawkeyes used a .379 attack percentage
and a season-high 66 kills to beat the Cyclones in four sets.
The win marks the third-straight victory for the Hawkeyes who
are now 5-3 on the season. </span></div>
<div align="left"><span> </span></div>
<div align="left"><span>Sophomore <a shape="rect"><span>Jess
Janota</span></a> had a career night, tallying a
career-high 20 kills and posting a .514 attack percentage.
Junior <a shape="rect"><span>Lauren Brobst</span></a> (17)
and freshman <a shape="rect"><span>Reagan Davey</span></a>
(10) also reached double digits in kills. Junior <a
shape="rect"><span>Loxley Keala</span></a> dished out a
season-high 55 assists, freshman <a shape="rect"><span>Libby
Koukol</span></a> paced the team with a career-high 18
digs, and senior <a shape="rect"><span>Mikaela Gunderson</span></a>
led the team with four blocks. </span></div>
<div align="left"><span> </span></div>
<div align="left"><span>"We're not rebuilding anymore. We're
built," said Shymansky. "This team is built to win and it's
just going to be a question of how much we want to win, and
how hard we will work to obtain what we should be this year.
We are already showing that." </span></div>

this year and we knew only a top level effort would do." </span></div>

<div align="left"><span>The Hawkeyes lone goal came in the first
six minutes of the game when freshman <a shape="rect"><span>Karsen

of the rivalry. They are a strong team filled with a lot of
upperclassmen," said DiIanni. "We knew physically we had to
show up and battle for 50-50 balls. We thought we were more
mobile than they were. In the first 70 minutes of the game, we
moved the ball well against them." </span></div>
