Following a tough loss to USC on Sunday, the No. 24 Auburn Tigers traveled to Seattle in hopes to get back in the win column and to carry momentum into the SEC opener next Wednesday.
The Tigers did just that by shooting 56% from the field and winning the rebound battle 42-24. Auburn departed from the Pacific Northwest with a dominating 84-61 win over Washington at Alaska Airlines Arena.
Four Tigers reached double-figures in the win, with [autotag]Johni Broome[/autotag] and [autotag]Jaylin Williams[/autotag] leading the way with 18 points each, followed by [autotag]Chris Moore[/autotag] and [autotag]Wendell Green Jr.[/autotag], who scored 12 and 11 points respectively.
Not only did Broome and Williams lead the team in scoring, but the duo dominated the boards as well. Both pulled down eight rebounds in the game, with 14 of those combined rebounds coming on the defensive side of the ball.
Were their performances enough to earn a vote for the “Tiger of the Game” award?
