⚾️ THIS WEEK IN AUBURN BASEBALL

Butch Thompson talks with Andy Burcham as the Tigers prepare for Opening Day.

🔼 Opening Day. It’s Opening Day for Auburn baseball! The Tigers will host Youngstown State this weekend, starting tonight at 5:30 p.m. CT. Auburn will honor Mike “Helmet Guy” Cooper with commemorative mini helmets tonight. The series will continue tomorrow at 6 p.m. CT and conclude on Sunday at 2 p.m. CT All three games will be streamed on SEC Network+.

🔼 Early Ending. Auburn softball run-ruled Illinois 8-0 last night to kick off the War Eagle Classic! Ella Harrison allowed just one hit, while the Auburn batters scored five runs in the fifth inning. The Tigers will play Bradley at 4:30 p.m. CT, then Campbell at 7 p.m. CT. Both games will be on SEC Network+.

🔼 From The Plains To The Hill. Auburn men’s basketball hits the road for a Valentine’s Day matchup at No. 21 Arkansas. The Tigers will play the Razorbacks at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow on ESPN. Auburn looks to bounce back from a loss to Vanderbilt, while Arkansas looks for revenge from last month’s matchup between the two.

🔼 Doubling Down. The 17th-ranked gymnastics squad will compete in two road meets this weekend! They’ll face off with No. 2 LSU tonight at 7:45 p.m. CT on the SEC Network. Then, they’ll travel to Texas for the Metroplex Challenge in Fort Worth on Sunday at 7:15 p.m. CT. At the Metroplex Challenge, they’ll face No. 13 North Carolina, No. 21 NC State and Boise State.

🔼  Auburn’s Spider-Man. Auburn senior KeShawn Murphy returned to his home state after four seasons at Mississippi State. Nicknamed “Spider-Man” for his on-court demeanor, Murphy has seamlessly transitioned to Auburn, averaging 11.7 points and 7.4 rebounds per game. He is committed to his Spider-Man persona, both on and off the court, and is a key piece to the Tigers.
