Tigers Enjoyed Standout Fall 2016 Season

From Oct. 3-4 in Columbia, Mo., Mizzou claimed top honors at the 2016 Johnie Imes Invitational, marking its third consecutive team victory at the event.
Mizzou's 864 team score at the Johnie marked the program's third-lowest all-time 54-hole team total.
The Tigers continued their success the following week at the Jim West Challenge (Oct. 9-10), shooting an 878 total score, marking the ninth-lowest all-time 54-hole score in program history.
Mizzou tallied two top 10 all-time 18-hole team scores this fall (282 at Johnie Imes – seventh lowest, 283 at Las Vegas Collegiate Showdown – tied for ninth lowest).
Since the Fall 2015 season began (1.5-year span), Mizzou has produced three team tournament wins.
The Tigers continue to show substantial improvement overall, as they claimed only three team victories the previous five years (Fall 2009 – Fall 2013).

Allen Emerging as Tigers' Top Threat

Following a 2016 SEC All-Freshman Team performance in her first year with the Tigers, sophomore Emma Allen has carried that success over to her 2016-17 season.
Over Mizzou's four Fall 2016 tournaments, Allen shot a combined 3-under with three tournaments under par.
Additionally, Allen placed top 15 in three of the four tournaments, highlighted by a T-6th finish at the 2016 Johnie Imes Invitational.

Yuen Enjoying Successful Start to Freshman Season

Freshman Jessica Yuen joined Allen as the most consistent Tigers during the Fall 2016 campaign.
Yuen placed top 25 in three of her four tournaments, including a pair of top 10 finishes. The Bolingbrook, Ill., native's top individual finish occurred at the 2016 Johnie Imes Invitational, as she placed T-8th overall.
The first-year Tiger capped off her impressive fall season with a blistering 5-under performance at the Las Vegas Collegiate Shootout. Yuen placed T-10th in the final individual rankings in Las Vegas, Nev.
