Happy New Year Warrior Fans! On behalf of all of
our student-athletes, activity participants, coaches,
program directors, and all of our athletic & activity
programs we hope all of you had a very Merry
Christmas, and have a joyous 2019 New Year.
Bowling: The Norwalk Warriors Boys Bowling
team headed into the break with a 2-0 overall record
while the girls team also entered the break with the
same 2-0 mark. The Warriors will next host Knoxville
at Val Lanes.
Boys Basketball: The Warriors are currently 7-3
overall and 3-1 in Little Hawkeye Conference play.
One of those three wins in conference play included
a 58-46 win over top ranked Oskaloosa in a matchup
of top ten teams. The Warriors closed out the pre-
holiday break with a 77-46 blowout of the Newton
Cardinals. In the win over Newton, Jr. Bowen Born
scored 19 points and in so doing eclipsed 1,000 points
in his high school career. Congratulations to Bowen
on this rare high school achievement. The Warriors
will resume their conference schedule as they host
the Grinnell Tigers.
Girls Basketball: The Warriors picked up a Little
Hawkeye Conference win prior to the break defeating
the Newton Cardinals 55-50. The Warriors are now
3-7 overall and are 1-3 in Little Hawkeye Conference
play. Grinnell will visit Norwalk as regular season
and conference play resumes.
Swimming: The Norwalk Swimmers and DSM
Lincoln swim team will be back in the pool in a duel
matchup with Hoover/North.
Wrestling: The Warriors continue to be dominant
in the duel matchups this season as they went into
the break winning all three dual matches in the
Warren County Dual Team Tournament and
improving their regular season record to 8-0. The
Warriors are also leading the Little Hawkeye Regular
Season Conference standings with a 3-0 record. In
the first Dual Team Rankings released before the
holiday break the Warriors slid in at #10 in Class
3A. A top eight ranking at the end of the season would
put Norwalk in a position to host its first ever regional
dual tournament. Norwalk will next travel to Pella
for a date with the Dutch in a Little Hawkeye
Conference match.
