🔼  SEC Slate. The SEC schedule for women’s basketball is here! The Tigers will play Florida twice this season as home-and-home opponents. SEC play begins on New Year’s Day when the Tigers take on Mississippi State in Starkville.

🔼 Worth The Wait. Senior running back Damari Alston makes the most of his opportunities, despite sitting behind Jarquez Hunter and Tank Bigsby in previous seasons. He’s expected to take over the starting role for the first time in his career. Transferring was never a thought, he knew he had to earn his spot at Auburn and he never backed down.

“Football has taught me a lot. Just being patient and not just running to where I think comfort is. I love being uncomfortable because it makes me stronger as a man. I feel like at some point everything is just going to fall into place how it’s supposed to, so I’m just going to stick it out. Everything here is meant for me.”

- Damari Alston
