Tigers add transfer PWO tight end Grant Hidalgo

Tigers add transfer PWO tight end Grant Hidalgo

Auburn baseball’s magical run to the College World Series came to an end Tuesday night. They had no answer for SEC West for Arkansas, losing 11-1 in their elimination game.

The Tigers proved everyone wrong this season, making it all the way to Omaha after being picked to be one of the worst teams in the SEC by the conference’s coaches.

They went on to finish with a 43-22 record, won a Regional at Plainsman Park, and then won the Super Regional to punch their ticket to Omaha.

It wasn’t only bad news on the Plains though, the football team landed a preferred walk-on from the transfer portal and two golfers were honored for their great seasons.

Grant Hidalgo gives Tigers even more tight end depth

You can never have too much depth in football. Auburn showed that Tuesday when they landed transfer tight end Grant Hidalgo, who will be a preferred walk-on.

Hidalgo spent his freshman season with the Stetson Hatters, where he redshirted and did not see the field. The 6-foot-6, 226-pounder has several family ties to the SEC. His father, Scott, played football at Alabama and his mother, Mandy, swam at LSU.
