It's Homecoming week at Iowa State. The annual celebration started Sunday with a kickoff event and students painting "Victory Lane" below the pedestrian bridge on the east side of Jack Trice Stadium, and continues through football game-related activities on Saturday. Homecoming includes other traditions, such as an awards ceremony Friday afternoon (1:30 p.m., Stephens Auditorium). More than 40 alumni and friends will be recognized by the university and the colleges for their impact on the university and/or in their communities.

A semifinal round took place Wednesday evening, and a small set of teams will compete in the final round during the Homecoming pep rally Friday evening outside the Alumni Center.
