The Southeastern Conference announced on Tuesday its preseason coaches' poll for the upcoming women’s soccer season. Auburn was picked to finish No. 7 this season, where it finished last season in league play.
Defending co-champions Arkansas and Texas A&M were picked to finish the season on top of the conference once more.
Auburn finished last season with a 10-5-3 overall record, posting a 3-4-2 record in division play. Despite a strong showing in the spring, where the Tigers went 6-1-1 including a five game winning streak, head coach Karen Hoppa’s team missed the NCAA tournament.
The 2021-2022 season begins on Thursday, when Auburn travels to face Samford on the road before its home opener on Saturday against No. 15 BYU.
