Magic in the
making H
ilton Coliseum is quiet. There are no players moving up and
down the court, no sneakers squeaking on the hardwood.
Cyclone Alley hasn’t yet found their collective seats. The band
hasn’t yet begun playing its tune of “Iowa State Fights!” There, in the mid-
dle of the place “Hilton Magic” once formed, so loud that the very floor
and rims shook, a spotlight shines down on center court. The spotlight is
as bright as ever.
“We know, at the end of the day, that this place is a magical place,”
said junior guard Nikki Moody about Hilton.
This season, the storyline has not been solely about men’s basketball,
nor has it been only about women’s basketball. The spotlight, the talk,
has been collective. The storyline: Iowa State basketball.
The talk started slow, but as records fell, and as Iowa State became the
only school remaining with both teams undefeated, it grew louder. Hilton
is on center stage. Iowa State basketball is as popular as ever before.
