Iowa State Cyclones Women’s Basketball History
The Iowa State Cyclones fielded their first women’s basketball team during the 1973-74 season and subsequently joined the Big Eight Conference in 1976. Iowa State became a founding member of the Big 12 Conference in 1996 and have since won three conference tournament championships and one regular season conference title. The Cyclones qualified for their first NCAA tournament in 1997 under coach Bill Fennelly, who has continued to build the team into a national powerhouse over three decades. Among their 23 NCAA tournament appearances, Iowa State advanced to the Elite Eight in 1999 and 2009 and reached the Sweet Sixteen most recently in 2022. In the meantime, the Cyclones played in two editions of the Women’s National Invitation Tournament, in 2004 and 2006.

Iowa State Cyclones at Hilton Coliseum
The Iowa State Cyclones women’s basketball team plays in Hilton Coliseum at the Iowa State Center in Ames, Iowa. Opened in 1971, Hilton Coliseum has since undergone several renovation projects to improve the gameday experience, including an update to the lighting system ahead of the 2016-17 season and the installation of an expanded center-hung video board in 2024. The arena currently seats 14,267 and hosts Iowa State's men’s and women's basketball, gymnastics, volleyball and wrestling programs. The arena was named for James H. Hilton, who served as Iowa State president from 1953 to 1965.

ISU Women's basketball is fun to watch in-person! We took our granddaughters and they had the best time doing all the activities; trivias; dances and ice cream! The band is awesome, and the crowd is engaged with the game. It is SO GREAT to be a CYCLONE fan!!
Wonderful experience watching the final ISU women´s basketball game. Great environment! A loud and supportive crowd. Concessions were good, we had Clone Cones today! Enjoyed the halftime entertainment. Tickets were cheap as they had a senior day promotion. Plenty of parking at Hilton. Will be back again next year!!!
Great atmosphere for Basketball- love seeing Cy available to take pictures- thanks
Best atmosphere you’ll find men’s or women’s game!
The colors, excitement and lots of children made it wonderful plus winning!
Since I only buy single tickets and do not have a season ticket, I took potluck on Wednesday night and was able to purchase one ticket in Section 110, row 7. I am hoping to go back to that seat for another game or two. It was behind the opposing team bench and I sat next to someone who I have worked with at Ames High School. That is the advantage of purchasing a single ticket--you can get a really great seat. We also beat Kansas State--another plus!
The Iowa State Women's basketball team is incredibly talented and always wonderful to watch. Between that and the fun little activities during time-outs I really enjoy these games.
Parking was a breeze. Walked right into Hilton and sat mid-court in the 2nd level with our general admission tickets. Seats were great, atmosphere was awesome! Can’t beat the value! Cannot speak for concessions because we did not use them this time.
Took the family to watch the Cyclone women play at Hilton and they were awesome! Those gals compete! It was a ton of fun. Plus they won which always helps. Had great seats to boot. I’d highly recommend the experience.
It was a great game and great seats. To top it off it was a double win for both men & women against Oklahoma
