Please join us for the Cyclone Twilight Meet on Friday, May 8th. During the evening there will be a brief dedication ceremony for a new memorial plaque/stone honoring Iowa State student-athletes Jeff Myers, Brian Vincent, and Laura Vernon who lost their lives in a plane crash in 1978. We will also recognize all alumni returning, plus pay tribute to our two latest ISU Athletics Hall of Fame inductees, Edward Kemboi and Christina Hillman.

Registration is required for dinner attendance numbers. The Myers' family have established a Family of Jeff Myers Support Fund in his memory. The fund will assist student-athletes as they pursue academic and athlete excellence, while carrying forward the value Jeff exemplified - perseverance, teamwork, and dedication. Resources from the fund will help advance scholarships, team development, academic success services, leadership opportunities and other initiatives that enrich the Cyclone track and field and cross country programs. The memorial stone is located at the entrance of the Bill and Karen Bergan Track at the Cyclone Sports Complex. To learn more about the Family of Jeff Myers Support Fund, click here.
