 | Iowa 4-H'ers Flood Hilton Coliseum |
Nearly 700 Iowa 4-H youth, families and friends cheered on the Iowa State University Women's Basketball team during 4-H Day at Hilton Coliseum. "The Cyclones lost the Jan. 14 game to Texas A&M, but our 4-H'ers  still had a great time cheering for the Cyclone women and visiting the Iowa State campus," said Shelly Greving, Iowa 4-H Foundation marketing director. "4-H Day at Hilton is always a 4-H club and family friendly event. This year we even had three generations of the Christensen family from Audubon County participating."
