Auburn, AL - Auburn women's basketball looked to get their first win at Knoxville in over 30 years. The Tigers will have to wait another year to get that opportunity as the Lady Vols defeated Auburn 73-62. Tennessee completed the season sweep of Auburn after beating them earlier in the year at Auburn's home arena. Auburn (18-7, 6-6 Conf) outplayed Tennessee (16-8, 5-6 Conf) in the first half, being up by five at halftime and as many as seven in the second quarter. That all changed in the second half as the Vols went on a 16-5 run to open the third quarter to take a 43-37 lead and never looked back, outscoring Auburn 46-30 in the second half.
