Auburn's Fralick, Rembert named Freshman All-Americans by Baseball America
Fralick and Rembert made early impacts for the Tigers, impressing the experts at Baseball America. The awards keep rolling in for Auburn baseball after their turnaround season. The latest players acknowledged for their 2025 season are freshmen Chase Fralick and Chris Rembert. On Monday, they were both named to the First Team Freshman All-America team by Baseball America. Both Fralick and Rembert were honored this season, along with Bub Terrell, on the Freshman All-SEC Team. Fralick played catcher for the Tigers in 2025. He was third on the team with a batting average of .335 and was fifth on the team with 41 RBIs. He played well in helping guide the Tigers to a Regional Championship. In the three games versus Central Connecticut State, Stetson, and NC State, he had four hits and one RBI. Fralick scored two runs in an 11-1 win over NC State to clinch the Regional Championship. Second baseman Chris Rembert was not only on the Freshman All-SEC Team but was also on the All-SEC Second Team. He was second on the Tigers with a batting average of .344 and third on the team with 72 hits. Rembert was also third on the team with ten home runs behind Ike Irish and Cooper McMurray. Rembert had perhaps one of his best games of the season against NC State with four hits and four RBIs. He had another four-hit game earlier in the season against Mississippi State in a 6-5 win on April 25th. Both Rembert and Fralick were huge parts of the Tigers' success, as they were one of the top seeds in the NCAA Baseball Tournament and hosted their first-ever Super Regional. The future is bright for both players and the Tigers. Contact/Follow us @TheAuburnWire on X (Twitter), and like our page on Facebook to follow ongoing coverage of Auburn news, notes, and opinions.

Michigan State seeks next step in March Madness second round vs. N.C. State
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Michigan State players embrace a good challenge and that's bound to be what the Spartans encounter as they attempt to keep their season going. Seeking to advance past the NCAA Tournament's second round for the first time since 2009, the Spartans take on N.C. State in Monday's game. 'The opportunity in front of us, I think that's what you're always working for is opportunities and creating new opportunities,' Michigan State coach Robyn Fralick said. 'That's what we have in front of us.' Second-seeded N.C. State (27-6) hasn't lost an NCAA Tournament game in its home city in 42 years. Seventh-seeded Michigan State (22-9) hasn't won back-to-back games since January. 'No one wants to just walk their way through the tournament,' Michigan State guard Nyla Hampton said. 'You want to earn everything you get.' The Wolfpack are 17-0 at home this season. N.C. State reached the Final Four a year ago, so there are plenty of potential obstacles for the Spartans. They rely on defense. They've set the program record for steals with 384. 'Road experience in the Big Ten, we play in front of sold-out crowds and packed environments and loud and all the things that make women's basketball so fun and at the platform it's on right now,' Fralick said. '… This place is going to be rocking. It's going to be loud.' The Wolfpack will be challenged as well, especially with Michigan State often using a pair of post players. N.C. State is a guard-dominated team. 'With us being young inside, that's going to be a concern,' said N.C. State coach Wes Moore, who has directed the Wolfpack to the Sweet 16 five times. N.C. State's guard-heavy lineup can rack up points, led by Aziaha James (17.8 points per game), Zoe Brooks (14.4), Saniya Rivers (11.8) and Madison Hayes (10.8). It will be the last home game for seniors James, Rivers and Hayes. 'I try not to think about it too much like this is my last time being in here,' Hayes said. 'But just worry more about the game, and then after we can have the emotional piece.' Same faces, different places Fralick and Moore have been on opposite sides before, but as a player and a coach. 'The basketball world becomes small pretty fast,' Fralick said. Fralick was a Davidson player at a time when Moore was Chattanooga's coach. So they had meetings in the Southern Conference. Fralick couldn't recall much success. 'They won the league every year I was there,' Fralick said. She was Robyn Flewelling back then before she married. 'It kind of slipped my mind, but then when I thought about it, because obviously her last name has changed,' Moore said. 'It's a great accomplishment for her to be at a Power 4 school like Michigan State, and she's done a heck of a job with it.' Early tip The assigned noon tip-off time for Monday's game has taken many fans by surprise. Regular daytime classes will be taking place on campus during the game. Moore acknowledged that it will be an inconvenience for many fans. He tried to put a positive spin on the situation with his team, noting the Wolfpack held morning practices during the season's first semester. 'Maybe I'm not sexy enough, so they didn't want me in prime time,' Moore said. ___ AP March Madness bracket: and coverage: Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season.
