In this episode of The Barn Hoops Podcast, we recap Auburn Basketball’s convincing win over Merrimack, highlighting a strong all-around effort under head coach Steven Pearl. The Tigers set the tone with energy, physicality, and discipline on both ends of the floor. 

Keyshawn Hall delivered a standout performance, leading the team in scoring while dominating the boards with a powerful inside presence. Emeka Opurum added toughness in the paint and timely buckets, while Sebastian Williams-Adams continued to impress with his athleticism and defensive versatility. 

Auburn’s defense was the story of the night — not through turnovers, but by forcing Merrimack into a barrage of contested three-pointers and limiting high-percentage looks inside. We’ll break down how the Tigers’ defensive game plan paid off, what Hall’s breakout means for the team’s identity, and how Steven Pearl’s squad is shaping up in the early stretch of the season.
