Norwalk is hosting the boys substate game vs. Sioux City West tonight in the NPECC at 7:00 p.m. This will be the only postseason basketball game this season.
We would love to see a great crowd cheering on the Warriors!
If you are coming to the game we ask that students sit in the bleachers and not running around on the track. This distracts from the game and students will be directed to go back to the bleachers. We appreciate your help and support making this a fun and exciting event.
Thanks,
Sheila Taylor, OH Principal
