The 7th grade Republic Tigers are champions of the Ozarks Football League.  They captured the title Thursday night by beating Central 22-0.

Three first-half touchdowns were all the Tigers needed to put the game away.  Jace Duvall rushed for one touchdown, and Jake Smith threw for two more, connecting with Zack Jester and Devin Smith for scores.  Jerney Jones had an interception for the Tigers, who finished the spring season undefeated.

The 8th grade Tigers were also in the championship game, but they fell to Kickapoo 20-0.  James Desjardins had an interception for Republic.
