The cyclone could not be depicted through a costume. Hence a cardinal was selected through a contest held at the Iowa State University in 1954. It was based on two colors, cardinal and gold that were the school colors. It was named Cy.

The Cyclones selected their mascot, Cy the Cardinal, through a fan vote in 1995. The cardinal was chosen to represent the state bird of Iowa and to symbolize strength and energy, fitting for a sports team.
