Republic nabbed three individual event championships and had several other top finishers at the Central Ozark Conference track meet in Nixa Thursday. Haven Lander won the pole vault (clearing 10’6″), Brooke Stanfield won the high jump (clearing 5’4″), and Jerney Jones won the long jump (with a leap of 22′ 4 1/2″). Stanfield’s jump tied the COC meet record held by three others, including Republic’s Sharla Friend.
The Tigers and Lady Tigers have both struggled with nagging injuries among some of their top performers all season. Thursday, Brooke Stanfield was scratched from the 200-meter dash, thrower Jamie Chapman didn’t compete, and Jake Jones didn’t run in the boys 4×100 relay. The boys finished 4th overall, and the girls ended in 7th.
