The Oskaloosa Indians boys’ basketball team is having a renaissance year under third year head coach Ryan Parker and the team has been rewarded as a host site for the first two rounds of district play.
The Indians will play Washington in the first round of Class 3A District 12 in a rematch of a game earlier this year that saw Osky put up a 90-55 road win. That game will be the nightcap of a doubleheader, following Knoxville playing Fairfield in at 6:30 PM on Monday, February 20th in the OHS Gymnasium.
If Osky wins, they’ll play on their home floor again against either Knoxville or Fairfield on February 23rdat 7 PM. Osky beat Knoxville and Fairfield during the first week of the season at home. The Indians beat Fairfield to open the season, 84-41, and Knoxville four nights later, 63-59.
If all goes well, Oskaloosa could find themselves in the Substate 6 Final in Class 3A, which will be played in Fairfield (unless the Trojans make it, in which case the game would be moved). Mount Pleasant would be the top seed in District 11, as they get two home games and sit at 17-2 on the year.
