Republic turned in two third-place finishes in its early-season relay meet in Springfield on Tuesday. Jonathan Noell, Blake Allen, Braeden Fergason, and Tytus Dorsey teamed up in three relays at the All-Relay meet in Springfield Wednesday night, and they came home with a pair of third-place finishes.

The Tigers’ best swim came in the 200-yard medley relay. Noell led off on the backstroke leg, followed by Allen on breaststroke, Fergason on butterfly, and Dorsey swimming freestyle on the anchor. They finished third in 2:03.54, behind Ozark and Kickapoo.

The same four Tigers took third in the 200-yard backstroke relay, with Fergason, Noell, Dorsey, and Allen each swimming a 50-yard leg. They finished in 2:44.68, behind Kickapoo and Waynesville.

Republic’s longest race of the night was the 300-yard freestyle relay, where Dorsey, Noell, Allen, and Fergason placed fifth in 3:47.75.

The meet included teams from Springfield Central, Glendale, Kickapoo, Ozark, Hillcrest, Marshfield, Logan-Rogersville, and Waynesville. Springfield Central won five of the twelve events.
