:40.59
Miller Rountree’s time in the 300m hurdles at the Nixa Invitational. Rountree’s finish was faster than anyone in Republic High School history, and it broke one of the longest-standing records on the books for track and field. The old mark of 40.67 seconds had been set by Kyle Evans in 1987, 35 years ago.
3.21
The earned run average of Gavyn Beckner, who leads the team in that category. Beckner has pitched 24 innings and allowed 11 earned runs. He has struck out 29 batters in his five start.
.571
The batting average of senior Adam Brown since returning from an injury he suffered in the preseason. Brown slugged a home run in his second at-bat, and it was a sign of things to come. Brown has four hits in seven at-bats, including a double and a homer.
71
The 18-hole score turned in by freshman Cason Bekemeier at Fremont Hills at the Ozark Invitational. The 71 was Bekemeier’s best score as a high schooler, and it was tied for sixth individually at the 20-team tournament.
10
The number of stolen bases by Gunner Ellison this season. Not only has Ellison swiped ten bases, but he’s been perfect doing it. Ellison hasn’t been thrown out yet this season.
