COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) – Drew Lock completed 22 of 37 passes for 294 yards and two touchdowns as Missouri defeated Vanderbilt 26-17 on Saturday.

It marks Missouri’s first Southeastern Conference victory since Lock’s starting debut, a 24-10 victory over South Carolina on Oct. 3, 2015.

Each team opened with a three-and-out before Damarea Crockett’s 6-yard touchdown run gave Missouri (3-7, 1-5) a lead it would never relinquish. Crockett had 20 carries for 154 yards and the touchdown.

J’Mon Moore caught eight passes for 138 yards and two touchdowns, including an 82-yard score with 9:50 remaining in the second quarter, and Johnathon Johnson added four catches for 73 yards.

Kyle Shurmur was 17 of 29 for 252 yards and two interceptions, one of which Missouri cornerback Aarion Penton returned 19 yards for a touchdown, the second of his career.
