The 7th grade Lady Tigers are on a roll. After a 2-2 start, they’ve reeled off seven wins in a row, and that includes a championship in the Central Ozark Conference Tournament. Republic knocked off Webb City 44-30 in the championship game to capture the title. They followed that up with a win over Willard behind a 30-point performance by Paelyn Gilmore. The Lady Tigers will wrap up their season with three more games after Christmas break, including a home game finale against COC rival Nixa on January 13.
