📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Round ‘Em Up. The third-ranked equestrian team took home some serious SEC hardware this week. Four Tigers earned SEC Rider of the Year awards and nine were honored for their efforts. Head Coach Jessica Braswell was named SEC Co-Coach of the Year after Auburn secured their sixth-straight SEC Championship. Isabella Tesmer was named Reining Rider of the Year and Sophee Steckbeck earned Fences Rider of the Year. Alexis Potts was named Freshman Rider of the Year in Horsemanship and Avery Glynn won Freshman Rider of the Year in Flat.

🔼 Friday Night Flight. Auburn baseball is hosting No. 8 Kentucky this weekend at Plainsman Park. The Tigers fell just short in a tight 6-5 game last night. The series will continue tonight at 6 p.m., featuring a Friday Night Eagle Flight! Tomorrow’s game will begin at 2 p.m., it’s Alumni Day and there will be a Masters-themed rally towel giveaway. Both games can be streamed on SEC Network+.

🔼 Tigers vs. Tigers. Auburn softball is headed to Baton Rouge to take on the sixth-ranked Tigers of LSU this weekend. Auburn took the series from LSU last season and look to take two in a row from them for the first time since 2015-16. First pitch is set for 6 p.m. tonight, they’ll continue the series tomorrow at 6 p.m. as well, and the series finale will begin Sunday at 1 p.m. All three games will stream on SEC Network+.

🔼 Close Us Out. The men’s tennis team is staying home this weekend as they close out the regular season! They’ll take on No. 11 Texas A&M at 3 p.m. today and LSU on Sunday at noon. Auburn is looking for a little revenge against Texas A&M, as they dropped a match to the Aggies at the ITA Kickoff earlier in the season. The Tigers jumped to No. 26 in this week’s ITA rankings after defeating Alabama last week. Come out to today’s match to enter an ultimate fan giveaway, where one lucky fan in attendance will win a Yeti cooler, Stanley cup, and folding rocking chair. On Sunday, there will be a free sundae bar for fans and a Senior Day ceremony.

🔼 All Split Up. The track & field teams are splitting up this weekend, some going to the Bryan Clay Invitational in California and other going to the Tom Jones Memorial Invitational in Florida. The men’s team is ranked No. 9 going in this week’s USTFCCCA poll. The distance runners will be in California while the sprinters, jumpers, and hurdlers will be in Florida.
