Centennial Celebration Game Information

AMES, Iowa ? A limited number of tickets remain for the Saturday Feb. 16 Iowa State-Nebraska men's basketball game and the highly anticipated centennial celebration for Cyclone hoops in Hilton Coliseum.

The day-long celebration includes a pre-game autograph session, an alumni game and a free commemorative poster for the first 10,000 fans attending the game. The introduction of the school's All-Century team will take place at halftime of the game against the Cornhuskers. A number of former Cyclones favorites will be in attendance. All former alumni attending the game will be honored in a special ceremony after the game. Click here to find out all of the former alumni who will be in attendance.

Athletics Department officials want to remind fans that a ticket to the ISU-NU matchup is required to participate in the autograph session with members of the Cyclone All-Century men's basketball team and view the alumni game. Fans without tickets better act quickly to ensure their participation in what figures to be a memorable day with the Cyclones.

Hilton doors will open at 9 a.m. on Feb. 16 with the autograph session scheduled for the Hilton Coliseum concourse from 9:30 a.m.-11:15 a.m. All-Century team members will be located at tables throughout the entire concourse. Fans will not be allowed in the arena area of Hilton Coliseum until 11 a.m. (while closed team shootarounds are conducted), and must stay in the concourse area until then. Pass-outs will be distributed to fans, who wish to leave Hilton Coliseum and come back for the Iowa State-Nebraska game, which tips off at 3 p.m.

The following All-Century team members have tentatively confirmed their attendance at the autograph session: Kelvin Cato, Gary Thompson, Fred Hoiberg, Jake Sullivan, Hercle Ivy, Zaid Abdul-Aziz and Jeff Grayer.

The definitive DVD, “Iowa State Basketball...A Century of Memories, Moments, and Magic,” chronicling 100 years of Iowa State men's basketball, will also be available for purchase ($19.99) in the concourse on the day of the game.
