LEXINGTON, Ky. – Mississippi State returns to play at the Cullan Brown Collegiate on Monday, looking to defend its team title. The Bulldogs finished one stroke ahead of host Kentucky to take the title last season.
The Cullan Brown Collegiate is held each year in memory of former Kentucky player Cullan Brown at the Lexington Country Club. The Bulldogs join a 15-team field for their third event of the 2026-27 fall campaign.
“First and foremost, the Cullan Brown Collegiate is a very special event in which they honor the late Cullan Brown,” head coach Dusty Smith said. “He was a special player for Kentucky and a great human being. This event is always about more than golf.”
