The Iowa State Men's Hockey Club was suspended from all competitions for the upcoming 2022-23 academic year Thursday.

An Office of Student Conduct investigation found the club violated the Student Code of Conduct by hazing new members. Three team events required alcohol abuse, underage drinking or public humiliation of the club's new members, according to the summary of the investigation.

The Cyclone men's hockey club responded with a statement accusing the university's administration of using a broad definition of hazing to deliberately restructure the club, not protect its students.

The Office of Student Conduct found three events: "Rookie Parties," "Kangaroo Court" and "Rookie Run," targeted new members of the club and involved their ability to join, continue to participate in and elevate within the club. ... The club denies any violation of the Student Code of Conduct.

Cyclone Hockey is not affiliated with Iowa State Athletics and is a club team, with a total of three men’s teams. Once the investigation is concluded, Iowa State will work with team representatives on a plan to restructure the club to align with other sport clubs in Recreation Services.

Doesn't look like they do, but not surprised. Iowa really isn't a state big on Hockey.


University of Iowa does not field a Big 10 team and surprisingly, neither does Illinois or Northwestern.
