After falling behind 3-0, Auburn scored eight unanswered runs, led by Brandon McCraine’s three-hit, three-RBI performance. Alex Petrovic earned the win, while Jackson Sanders secured his first career save with four scoreless innings and eight strikeouts in relief.

🔼  Top-10 Win. No. 4 Auburn women’s tennis defeated No. 6 Texas 4-0, securing their fourth win over a top-10 opponent this season.
