🔼 Have Fans, Will Travel. If we know anything about Auburn hoops fans, it’s that they will travel far and wide to see their team, especially for something as significant as the Final Four tournament.

🏀 Go here for more info on the four events planned in San Antonio! 👀

🔼 Sleepless in Seattle, Gymnastics Version. The No. 15 Auburn gymnastics team is officially into the NCAA postseason and will be the No. 4 seed in the NCAA Gymnastics Washington Regional held April 4-6 in Alaska Airlines Arena in Seattle.

The Tigers will kick things off in the NCAA Regional Second Round on Friday, April 4 and will compete in the night session at 9 p.m. CT against No. 1 seed Oklahoma, Nebraska and the winner of the play-in between Illinois and UC Davis. 

🔼 Four-Baggers Were Flying. Auburn’s midweek win vs. South Alabama marked the team’s seventh straight in the series against the Jaguars. The team improved to 6-1 in midweek games and 16-3 in non-conference play.

Auburn’s four home runs in the game matched a season high. The Tigers held Georgia, who entered the weekend as the nation’s leader in runs, hits and home runs, to four runs in regulation in two of the three games on the weekend.

This weekend’s series against No. 8 Alabama marks the fourth of the team’s six straight games against ranked opponents.

Auburn is 16-3 in non-conference games this season, including 6-1 in midweek contests, and is 35-7 in non-conference play since the beginning of last season. The Tigers are 13-3 at Plainsman Park this season and have just one home midweek loss in the last two years.

🔼 Hooppurtunity. Auburn’s DeYona Gaston will participate in the 2025 Lilly Women’s College All-Star Game on Saturday, April 5, in Tampa, Florida. She will join other seniors from across the country in the nationally televised contest on ESPN2.

The event provides 20 of the country’s brightest stars one final opportunity to represent their programs and be recognized against the backdrop of the sport’s championship weekend.

Gaston averaged 22.3 points to lead Auburn this season, setting a program record for the highest single-season scoring average in Auburn history.
