Basketball season has come to a close on the Plains after Auburn's 84-52 loss to the Baylor Bears Sunday afternoon in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
Brandy Montgomery led the Tigers with 14 points, Katie Frerking added 11 and senior Tra'Cee Tanner scored 13 in her final game for Auburn.
No.1 seeded Baylor's superior height proved troublesome for the Tigers, and the Bears led 68-39 through three quarters and forced Auburn into 12 turnovers to punch their ticket to the Sweet 16.
For head coach Terri Williams-Flournoy and the Tigers, they have nothing to hang their heads about.
Baylor -- which has made 13 straight trips to the Big Dance -- were far more experienced than this year's Auburn team, which made its first appearance in the NCAA Tournament since 2009.
Auburn finished its season with a 20-13 record, and Baylor improved to 35-1.
