NCAA Tournament: Tiger Walk to the Sweet 16
As the Tigers depart Neville Arena for Atlanta, the Auburn family came out to cheer them on.

🔼 Talent On Display. Eugene Asante may be leaving Auburn for the NFL, but Auburn isn’t leaving him. During Auburn’s Pro Day Monday at the Woltosz Center, Asante sought to set an example for his former teammates during drills and tests.

“When we were in the weight room doing the vertical, I saw all the guys inside Coach Dom’s [head football strength & conditioning coach Dom Studzinski] office,” Asante said. “To me, I’m thinking I’ve got to make these guys proud.”

One of 18 former Tigers participating in Pro Day, Asante sought to further increase his draft stock after the Senior Bowl and NFL combine, when his 4.48 40-yard dash made him the second fastest linebacker.

🔼 This Squad Rolls Deep. No. 25 Auburn softball (22-11) took down Troy 12-5 Wednesday night at Troy Softball Complex to complete the season sweep of the Trojans (21-13) and record Auburn’s first true road win of the season.  

The win was Auburn’s 15th come-from-behind victory of the season and also marked the seventh time this year that the Tigers have scored 10 or more runs in a game. Auburn’s offense exploded for 17 hits to set a season high. Seven of Auburn’s nine starters recorded a hit in the contest, while seven different Tigers turned in multi-hit performances.

🥎 : THE WHOLE SHEBANG

🔼 Stars On the Rise. Freshmen Sophia Bell and Katelyn Jong have been placed on the SEC All-Freshman Team for their performances during the regular season.

Bell was recognized for her efforts on floor, having a 9.9 NQS in the event. She has competed in the event in every meet and has scored a career-best 9.925 on four occasions, winning floor once this year. Jong was honored for her performances on bars. She finished with a 9.905 NQS prior to her season-ending injury, competing in eight meets in the event. She scored six 9.9s or better over eight meets, including a pair of 9.925s to set a career high.

🔼 A Little Birdie Told Us. For the third time this season, Auburn sophomore Anna Davis has earned SEC Player of the Week honors. Davis picked up the honor after claiming the individual title at the Charles Schwab Women’s Collegiate Invitational on Tuesday. The win marked the third collegiate title of Davis’ career, as she was the NCAA Auburn Regional low medalist last season and won the Illini Invitational at Medinah earlier this season.

In addition to being named SEC Freshman of the Week on April 5, 2024, Davis was tabbed SEC Player of the Week twice in the fall on Sep. 18, 2024 and Oct. 9, 2024.

🔼 Preseason Props. In his most recent press conference, Auburn football coach Hugh Freeze said there’s an air of confidence about this incoming squad, and Jackson Arnold is surely part of that. Put this name on your radar.

🔼 Relaying Positive News. The 2025 Men’s NCAA Championships began on Wednesday inside Weyerhaeuser King County Aquatics Center and the Auburn Tigers made the most of the 200 medley and 800 free relays. Both squads managed to score points for the Orange and Blue as the team sits 14th after night one with 14 total points. 

Today signals the start of individual events, beginning with the 500 free, 200 IM, 50 free and 1-meter diving competitions. Prelims begin at Noon CT. 

🔼 Hammer Time … Sorry, Had To. The Auburn track & field team looks to continue its strong start to the outdoor season as the Tigers compete in the Terry Long FSU Relays in Tallahassee, Florida, today and tomorrow. The men’s hammer will start today at 2 p.m. CT and the women’s javelin will start tomorrow at 9 a.m. CT.  

The Orange & Blue looks to use the momentum from the Yellow Jacket Invitational, where the team put up nine event wins. Highlighting the team’s showing was the throwing squad, which contributed five of the event wins.  

🔼 Put to the Battesti. Auburn Women’s Tennis’ Alice Battesti has been awarded SEC Freshman of the Week honors. The Auburn freshman had a perfect weekend for the Tigers, with two singles wins and a doubles victory during the team’s successful homestand against No. 15 Vanderbilt and Missouri, including the match-clinching win against the Commodores.
