A strong close to the regular season last weekend has earned sophomore Andie Dikosavljevic her second SEC Player of the Week title this season.
"Andie has established herself as one of the best players in the SEC and in the nation," said Auburn coach Lauren Spencer. "She has had a tremendous year of growth mentally and tactically, which has elevated her game to a whole new level."
On Friday, Dikosavljevic had two road wins against No. 6 Vanderbilt. She paired with Alannah Griffin to defeat Frances Altick and Astra Sharma, 6-2. With Auburn down 3-2, she tied the match in a straight-set victory over No. 19 Sydney Campbell, 7-6, 6-2.
Sunday marked her 11th victory over a ranked opponent when she defeated No. 69 Justin Mikulskyte of No. 20 Kentucky on the road.
"We are extremely proud of her and excited to see what she has in store for her post season performance," Spencer said.
Dikosavljevic and the No. 12 Tigers have clinched the fourth seed in the SEC Tournament, the highest in program history, and will face either Tennessee, Ole Miss, or South Carolina Friday in the quarterfinals in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
