Claybrooke shot an 18-hole total of 76 to tie for 12th individually in the 103-player field and earn the final state tournament slot.
As a junior, Claybrooke tied for 16th in the Class 2A state tournament with a two-day total of 152.
He will be the lone M-S representative when the IHSA state finals begin on Friday (Oct. 18) at Weibring Golf Club, in Normal.
