March 25th, 2024 by admin
AMES, Iowa – Iowa State was able to secure a postseason bid this past weekend at the Big 12 Championships, as it was announced that it will be heading to Gainesville, Fla., to compete in the Florida regional. The Cyclones will join the likes of No. 4 Florida, No. 13 Missouri, No. 20 Georgia, and No. 30 Clemson.
ISU will square off with Clemson on April 4 for the right to advance to a quad-meet against the other three teams on April 6. The last time Iowa State participated in a “play-in” was 2022, when the team defeated Western Michigan to advance to the Fort Worth Regional quad-meet.
After a brief one-year hiatus from postseason play, first-year Head Coach Ashley Miles Greig has led the team back into the spotlight that is the postseason.
The Cyclones will make their 15th Regional appearance in the last 17 seasons, as the team is set to compete in the O’Connell Center on Florida’s campus, having done so previously on March 15.
