In that game against Minnesota, the first of Trice’s career, he suf- fered a broken collarbone in the first half. After continuing to play, Trice was trampled in the third quarter. Trice died three days after that game, and more than 4,000 students and faculty gathered at a funeral on Central Campus. Cyclone Stadium was re- named Jack Trice Stadium in 1997. It is the only stadium in Division I-A to be named after an African-American. 4 | IOWA STATE DAILY GRIDIRON | Sept. 13, 2013 Courtesy of Parks Library Special Collections (3) Prior to his first game, while in his hotel room, Trice wrote a letter to himself: “My thoughts just before the first real college game of my life: The honor of my race, family and self is at stake. Everyone is expecting me to do big things. I will. My whole body and soul are to be thrown recklessly about the field tomorrow. Every time the ball is snapped, I will be try- ing to do more than my part. On all defensive plays I must break thru the opponents’ line and stop the play in their terri tory. Beware of mass interference. Fight low, with your eyes open and toward the play. Watch out for crossbucks and reverse end runs. Be on your toes every min- ute if you expect to make good.” THIS IS NOW JACK TRICE Clockwise from bottom: ISU athletic department | Hayley Hochstetler (2)/Iowa State Daily Sept. 13, 2013 | IOWA STATE DAILY GRIDIRON | 5 JUSTIN COLEMAN FEATURED ATHLETE A football player who saw his former program, in Nebraska- Omaha, dissolve in March 2011, Justin Coleman found his way onto the Cyclones’ roster in an interesting way. He was offered a walk-on position and after a visit to a spring practice and the spring game in 2011, Coleman decided to come to Iowa State and try to earn a scholarship the hard way by making an impression on the coaches in practice. Then, on Aug. 4, 2013, Coleman was awarded a scholar- ship by head coach Paul Rhoads on the eve of Iowa State’s fall camp. Then, in Coleman’s first game as a Cyclone, he took his first career catch and saw noth- ing but green — he ran 59 yards for the score. Coleman led the Cyclones in receiving against UNI with four catches for 104 yards. Not a bad start.
