Plainsman's Choice for Auburn Athletes of the Year

Auburn athletics experienced much success and controversy over the past 365 days. SEC Championships were met with secretive investigations, resulting in the appointment of new athletic director Allen Greene.

Despite the recently scandalous nature of the program, Greene inherits a talented bunch of Tigers across the board. While every student-athlete exemplifies extreme dedication with balancing of classwork and practice, there were a few Auburn players that stood out among the rest.
