proved to be a wild high
scoring affair as both
teams traded baskets all
night, but in the end the
Bluejays downed the War-
riors 91-81. Seniors Baylee
Steele and Carter Albrecht
combined for 54 of
Norwalk's 81 as Steele
dropped in 29 points along
with 22 rebounds, while
Albrecht had 25 points in-
cluding five 3s.
Girls Basketball
The Warriors found
themselves facing another
ranked opponent in the
early part of the season as
they hosted the Perry
Bluejays in a non-confer-
ence matchup. Unfortu-
natel Perry jumped out
to a big lead at the end of
the 1st quarter, outscoring
the Warriors 22-6 and
Norwalk could not recover
as they fell 61-45.
Wrestling
The Warriors had a very
successful week as they
picked up their third Little
Hawkeye Conference duel
victory defeating the New-
ton Cardinals 52-15 to re-
main undefeated in the
conference. The Warriors
trailed the Ballard-Huxley
Bombers 33-12 before
storming back to defeat the
Bombers 39-33 in a non-
conference matchup. And
the Warriors kept their
success intact as they trav-
eled to Pella for the Dutch
Invitational and brought
back a first place trophy.
The WW apologizes for
not having individual re-
suits as they were not

New Year, Healthier You
If you were to reflect on 2014, would you be pleased
with how you took care of yourself this year? Do you
think that you could have done a better job and plan to
do a better job this upcoming year?
In December 2015, I want you to be able to say you're
pleased with how you took care of yourself. You can
know you did a great job!
Here are five things I find to be extremely important
to help you reach your level of optimal health.
1. Drink more water. During the cold weather, it is so
easy to not get enough fluids. Drinking plenty of water
helps keep your skin looking good, can help control
calories, and you're 60% water, so it is important to
maintain the balance of body fluids.
2. Eat more vegetables. Eating a rich diet of vegetables
may reduce the risk for heart disease, including heart
attack and stroke and may even protect against certain
types of cancers.
3. Think positive and focus on gratitude. Research
shows a healthy positive attitude helps build a healthier
immune system and boosts overall health. Your body
believes what you think, so focus on the positive.
4. Exercise regularly. It is so hard to fit another activ-
ity into our chaotic daily schedules, but exercising is a
must! Exercise promotes better sleep, controls weight,
improves mood, boosts energy, can combat health con-
ditions and disease and can do so many more great
things for you. It is important to look at your schedule
and figure out a way to incorporate exercise into your
life.
5. Get adjusted! Chiropractic triggers your body's
ability to heal by working with the nervous system. As
a chiropractor, I recognize that there are several factors
that affect your health such as exercise, nutrition, sleep,
environment and heredity. Chiropractic focuses on
maintaining your health naturally to help your body
resist disease.
Please feel free to email me and receive my monthly
newsletters regarding nutrition. The clinic email is
info@elwoodclinic.com. Schedule your appointment
today: 515-981-1003. Elwood Chiropractic, PLLC is lo-
cated at 1122 Main Street, Suite 2. We are right across
the street from Scott's Foods.
The time is now. A new year, a healthier you.

Tie great trouble with baseball today is that most of the players are in the game
for the money and that's it, not for the love of it, the excitement of it, the thrill of it.
