AUBURN, Ala. -- Branndi Melero knows how to celebrate a Senior Day, and the Auburn Tigers do, too.
Melero hit a 2-run homer and Auburn completed a three-game sweep of Arkansas in a 10-2 victory Sunday at Jane B. Moore Field.
"I couldn't be happier. It came at the right time," Melero said. "The fact it was on Senior Day made me smile a little bit bigger."
The game not only served as a day to celebrate the senior class of Melero, Morgan Estell and McKenzie Kilpatrick, but also kept the Tigers in the hunt for the Southeastern Conference championship heading into the final weekend of the regular season at LSU.
