\n\tJocelyn Erickson<\/a>, who has hit 49 home runs as a Gator, is one home run shy of becoming just the fifth Florida player in program history\u00a0to hit 50 or more home runs in their career: Lauren Haeger\u00a0(71), Megan Bush (65), Francesca Enea<\/a>\u00a0(61) and Kelsey Bruder (52)

\n\t\tThe senior is just three home runs shy of matching the Florida single-season record of 22 home runs. The record is currently held by Taylor Shumaker<\/a>\u00a0(2025) and Brittany Schutte (2011)
\n\t\tWith 214\u00a0RBIs in her Florida career,\u00a0fifth-most in program history, Erickson is just three RBIs of moving into a tie with Megan Bush (2008-11) for fourth-most in program history (217)

\n\tWhen Florida faced Auburn in April, Shumaker batted a team-best .556 (5-for-9) with a pair of doubles, while Townsen Thomas<\/a> batted .500 (5-for-10) with a double and a triple
\n\t
\n\t\tIn the circle, Keagan Rothrock<\/a> went 2-0 in the series, holding a 1.24 ERA in 11.1 innings pitched against the Tigers, allowing just two earned runs with 11 strikeouts
\n\t
\n\t
\n\tThe Gators have won 17-straight regular-season\u00a0series against Auburn. The last time the Tigers took a series over Florida was at\u00a0Auburn in 2005
