Good Morning, Auburn Family. Hosting an NCAA regional for the third time in four years, No. 4 Auburn will start sophomore Cam Tilly tonight at 6 p.m. CT against Central Connecticut State in the Tigers’ tournament opener. Tilly, who entered Auburn’s weekend rotation April 27 against Mississippi State, will make his sixth start of the season.

“He’s trended better and better and better, and I think he’s ready for this,” Auburn coach Butch Thompson said. “We have the confidence and trust in him.”

There has been an eight-day gap between Auburn’s SEC Tournament game and the Tigers’ regional matchup with the Blue Devils, so the team is rested and ready to go.

🔼 This Makes it Real. The SEC released kickoff times and TV networks for the first three weeks of the 2025 Auburn football season. TV windows will be announced for all remaining SEC-controlled games in June.

Auburn will open the season on the road at Baylor in a rare Friday night game. The Tigers and Bears will kick off at 7 p.m. CT on Aug. 29, and the game will be televised on FOX.

Kickoff on the Plains will be under the lights for the second straight year as Auburn will take on Ball State at 6:30 p.m. CT on Sept. 6 in the team’s home opener.

In week three, Auburn will host South Alabama at 11:45 a.m. CT on Sept. 13 for this year’s Homecoming game.

🔼 These Kyles Can THROW. Auburn throwing duo Kyle Moison and Kyle Brown punched their tickets to the NCAA Outdoor Championships, and the Tigers’ sprint crew advanced seven to the second round of the NCAA East Preliminaries during day one on the University of North Florida campus.  

Moison, a senior, finished third in the men’s hammer throw to qualify for his second NCAA Outdoor Championships. Brown will compete in his third outdoor championships after finishing seventh in hammer throw (66.61m). Brown entered the meet ranked 16th nationally, and he outperformed 41 of the 48 competitors to earn one of the 12 spots for nationals.

🐅 ONE BIG THING

Double-A Does It Again. Behind one of the best freshman campaigns recorded by a Tiger, Auburn softball’s AnnaLea Adams was named to D1 Softball’s Freshman All-America Second Team.

The honor is just one of many accolades the Liberty, Indiana, native has collected this postseason. Earlier this month, Adams became the first Auburn freshman to earn All-SEC First Team honors. She also added 2025 National Fastpitch Coaches Association All-Gulf Region First Team honors to become the first Auburn freshman to do so since Kasey Cooper in 2014.
