Auburn softball won their fifth consecutive SEC series this weekend, taking one of two games in Saturday's double header.
The series moved Auburn to 40-6 overall with a 12-3 mark in conference play.
Auburn gave up 10 runs in the third inning in the first game, and eventually lost 12-4.
Branndi Melero was the star of the second game, going 3-for-5, including a grand slam in the seventh inning that locked things up for the Tigers, giving them a 12-4 lead.
Melero also hit another homer, giving her a total of seven RBIs.
On the mound, Rachael Walters picked up both her 15th win of the season, and her second straight complete game, giving up four runs on just six hits.
Next weekend, one of the biggest series of the year approaches for the Tigers as the Alabama Crimson Tide comes to town for a three-game series.
The series kicks off Friday at 7:30 p.m. at Jane B. Moore field.
