When the Norwalk boys basketball team defeated Mason City Monday evening, it marked the program’s first postseason win in Class 4A. The Warriors had previously been in the 4A tournament twice, with first round losses to Urbandale and Southeast Polk. Head Coach Chris Larson says it’s an important milestone for his team.

Reigning Class 3A champion Norwalk travels to take on reigning Class 4A champion Ankeny Friday evening. Game time is 7:00 p.m., with live coverage on KNIA3.
