The Indianola football team is coming off of a 4-5 season with a first round playoff appearance, and will face an entirely new set of challenges coming into the 2021 season including facing rivals in district play. The new class 5A in Iowa High School football has kept Indianola in class 4A, and will now compete against Warren County rivals Norwalk and Carlisle in district play, alongside Boone, Perry, and Bondurant-Farrar. The non-district schedule will be released in the coming months.
