Lady Tigers Rake In Post-Season Honors

Three all-region players and an academic all-state selection highlight the post-season awards for Republic Lady Tigers soccer.

Junior forward Emily Jordan, senior midfielder Emily Griffith, and freshman defender Grace Lightfoot were all named to the Class 3 Region 3 team. The region includes schools from an area that ranges from southwest Missouri up through the St. Louis area. All-region players are selected by the Missouri Soccer Coaches Association.

Jade Sawyer was one of just 29 players named to the All-state academic team by the coaches. Selection is based on a combination of playing career and academic performance. Sawyer and Brooklynn Stoner of Branson were the only two Central Ozark Conference players named to the team.

Nine Lady Tigers landed on the all-district team. Jordan, Lightfoot, Griffith, and Madi Mitchell were on the first team. Anna Jones, Sawyer, and Lauryl Hyde were on the second team. Danielle Beck and Jessica Laster earned honorable mention.
