AUBURN, Ala. (AP) — Christopher Sargent hit a three-run home run, Dustin Dickerson hit two solo shots, and Southern Miss defeated Auburn 7-2 on Saturday, eliminating the Tigers from their own regional.

A solo shot by Danny Lynch in the eighth inning gave the Golden Eagles four home runs for the game.

Second-seeded Southern Miss (42-18) will play on Sunday against the loser of Saturday’s other game between No. 4 Penn and No. 3 Samford.

Sargent’s first-inning home run got the Golden Eagles started and the 3-0 lead was enough as Auburn managed only a pair of RBI singles — by Chris Stanfield and Cooper McMurray — in the sixth inning.

Starter Billy Oldham (7-3) pitched 5 2/3 innings, allowing two runs on four hits. Will Armistead finished with 3 1/3 scoreless innings.

The Tigers (34-23-1) had runners on first and second in the ninth but did not score against Armistead.

Auburn lost to Penn 6-3 in the opening round on Friday.
