Our weekly conversation about Republic Tigers basketball is sponsored by the Sue Carter Real Estate Group at Keller Williams, Republic’s local, hometown realtor. Being an excellent real estate professional requires integrity, in-depth community and market knowledge, marketing savvy, effective negotiation skills and a high-quality professional network–and those are all hallmarks of how The Carter Group works.Republic basketball coach Tim Brown joins us to talk about the Tigers after their 2-1 weekend at the Republic Invitational last weekend. We discuss the wins over Marshfield and Rogersville and the loss against Rolla — and we look ahead to the Tigers’ games against Clever and defending Oklahoma state champion Tulsa Memorial.
