The nearness of the school, the public- ity it has received and the fact that many students' older brothers and sis- ters attend Iowa are some of the many reasons Hawkeye Fever is so big. But was football the only thing Cen- tral students were interested in? Defi- nitely not! Basketball and wrestling were the favorites of Brain Hampton, while Michele Schaab said she had a strong interest in volleyball. The inter- est and support for the Hawkeye teams are many. Even though Iowa's season was not so hot this year, Hawkeye Fever certainly has been a big part of Central student life. In the fall, Iowa's football team lost 57-0 to Nebraska for the worst loss in 30 years. But even after such a disap- pointing season, the Hawkeye fans were as supportive as ever. The stadium was always packed and tickets for the game were sold out a year in advance. So win or lose, the Iowa Hawkeyes can always count on the support of the Central Blue Devils.

When football season came around, the big talk was not only about the upcoming Central-Betten- dorf game, but also about Hayden Frye's team known as the Hawkeyes. This fall, Hawkeye Fever hit Central and it looks like it's here to stay! Why have the Iowa Hawkeyes be- come such an important part of Central 12
