AMES, Iowa – Iowa State coach Jamie Pinkerton announced the team’s 2025 fall schedule Wednesday morning. The Cyclones’ fall slate features eight contests, four of which are at the Cyclone Sports Complex.

The fall ball slate, which spans over three weeks, is set to begin on Wednesday, September 17, against DMACC at the CSC. ISU closes the opening week with a pair of home contests versus Kirkwood (9/20) and Iowa Central (9/21). All three contests will consist of 10 innings of play.

The Cyclones will round out September with the annual Big Four Classic. This fall, UNI will host the competition, as Iowa State will face Drake, UNI and Iowa in three consecutive days.
