The Auburn Tigers will compete in the SEC Coaches Classic for men's tennis November 4-6 in Tuscaloosa, Ala.
Max Hinnisdaels, Conner Huertas del Pino, Carles Sarrio and Dante Saleh will travel to Alabama to compete for the Tigers.
"This is a good way to wrap up the fall season. There will be 11 of the 13 SEC teams there, and most are bringing their top guys, so it will be strong competition," said Auburn head coach Bobby Reynolds. "This will help our guys conclude the fall and see where they stand and how they match up heading into the spring match play."
Max Hinnisdaels and Carles Sarrio will represent the Tigers during doubles play. They will open against Butsch and Moreno (LSU) Friday at 9 a.m. Huertas and Sarrio will begin singles play on Friday 12:30 p.m. while Saleh and Hinnisdaels will start singles action at 2 p.m.
Teams participating include Auburn, Alabama, Vanderbilt, LSU, Arkansas, South Carolina, Florida, Mississippi State, Ole Miss and Kentucky.
The SEC Coaches Classic will conclude the Tigers' fall season. The men will travel to Orlando, Fla., to take on UCF to open the 2017 tennis season on January 22.
