The second-best moment of the school year at Norwalk was when the wrestling team made it to the program’s first ever state dual tournament. The Warriors defeated Ankeny in the regional duals, and Head Coach Brandon Schmitz said afterward it was a long-standing goal of his.

In Wells Fargo Arena, the #7-seed Warriors placed fifth. Norwalk started the day with a 37-30 loss to #2 Southeast Polk. That loss put the Warriors in the consolation side of the bracket, pitting Norwalk against #6 Bettendorf. A 39-30 victory propelled the Warriors to the fifth place match, where they defeated #8 Linn-Mar 56-21, capping off a 2-1 day for the team.
