In 1932 halfback Jimmy Hitchcock made Auburn history by becoming the first player to earn All-America honors. Eighty-nine years later, Roger McCreary continued the legacy of Auburn greats by becoming a first team All-American on three different lists in 2021. The first cornerback to earn All-America honors since Chris Davis in 2013, McCreary was placed on the Associated Press, The Athletic and ESPN first teams. n Seventy-two Tiger players have combined for 81 first team All-America honors. End Jimmy Phillips is Auburn’s most celebrated All-American, making 11 teams in 1957. Pat Sullivan, Terry Beasley, Bo Jackson and Tracy Rocker were each named to 10 teams in a single season. n Auburn has had 22 seasons with multiple All-Americans and nine seasons with three or more.

Now that is that is Auburn being Au- burn. For more than 100 years, eagles have been associated with Auburn Football. From a static presence on the sidelines to rousing flights over the field, War Ea- gle has become an icon. Just like the Auburn Tigers, the Au- burn eagles practice all week long so they’ll be at their best on gameday. “We’re out here in Jordan-Hare Sta- dium Monday through Friday from July until the end of the season,” said Andrew Hopkins, in his 11th season directing Au- burn’s eagle flights. Hopkins trains Aurea, a golden eagle that began flying before Auburn games in 2018 and was officially named War Ea- gle VIII the following year. Fellow raptor trainer Amana Sweeney handles Inde- pendence, a bald eagle that debuted last season. “We hear from fans about how they tear up when the eagle flies,” said Hop- kins, an Auburn University zoology grad- uate and the assistant director of raptor training and education at the Southeast- ern Raptor Center in Auburn University’s College of Veterinary Medicine. When they’re not training Aurea and Indy at the stadium, Hopkins and Sweeney take their show on the road to visit schools. “About 300 shows a year,” Hopkins said. “When we go to an elementary school and kids see an eagle for the first time up close, it gets almost as loud as Jordan-Hare Stadium on gameday.” The eagle flight attracts visitors, even if they’re not yet fans of Auburn football, says Hopkins. “We’ve even received letters from people who have no Auburn affiliation and no SEC affiliation, but they’ve come to an Auburn game because it was on their bucket list to see the eagle fly,” Hopkins said. Though eagles have been associat- ed with Auburn football for more than a century, the pregame flight did not begin until Aug. 31, 2000, when Tiger, also known as War Eagle VI, flew from the end zone to midfield, delighting the 76,128 fans in attendance for the season opener vs. Wyoming. Before long, the flights began on the concourse between the lower and upper bowls, making for a more majestic flight as the eagles circle the stadium before locating their trainer at midfield. “Auburn fans love the eagle flight,” Hopkins said. “They love both the War Eagle, and when we fly Independence, our bald eagle. It brings everyone to- gether and it’s a special moment.” AUBURN BEING AUBURN: EAGLE FLIGHT BY GREG OSTENDORF AUBURNTIGERS.COMBusiness Friends Working for the Future of Auburn 334.321.2321 | brightinvestments.com Auburn, AL | Memphis, TN | Nashville, TN | Tampa, FL WAR EAGLE!
