Troy Takes Down No. 5 Auburn

Box Score

AUBURN, Alabama – Jackson Cofer's three-run homer in the fifth proved to be enough to boost Troy past No. 5 Auburn, 5-2, for the highest ranked victory in the Trojans' Division-I history Tuesday at Plainsman Park.

With two on in the fifth inning, Cofer jumped on the first pitch he saw and blasted a homer over the right field wall to extend Troy's (23-17) lead to 4-0.

In the bottom of the frame, No. 5 Auburn (30-13) cut the lead in half on a two-RBI single off the bat of Jay Estes – who finished the game 2-for-4.
