Mizzou and Ford Clegg of Mississippi State close the fall season in style at Steelwood Country Club in Loxley, Ala.

Behind top-20 finishes by Jack Lundin, Charlie Crockett and Yu Ta Tsai, the Missouri Tigers came away with the team title at the Steelwood Collegiate Invitational, which was hosted by the University of South Alabama in Loxley, Ala.

Mississippi State's Ford Clegg successfully defended his individual title by medalist honors once again with an 11-under-par 205 total after posting a pair of 67s on Saturday. The Tigers, ranked 42nd by Golfweek/Sagarin, took a five-stroke lead into Sunday's final round and after closing with an even-par 288, finished the 54-hole event at 17-under 847, good for a two-stroke victory over Kentucky.

We love it when a plan comes together. #MIZ🐯⛳️

With his performance at Steelwood, Lundin, a junior from Sioux Falls, S.D. has finished in the top-20 in four of Mizzou's five events this fall.
