IOWA CITY, Iowa -- Light the candles and shine the lights, Musco Twilight is celebrating its "Sweet 16" tonight at Cretzmeyer Track.

It took one year longer than expected -- Musco Twilight took a one-year hiatus in 2009 due to floodwater damage -- but the fact that it has lived this long, or even saw the light of day to begin with, is a testament to its founding father and some very generous UI graduates.
