After a long and trying regular season, four Iowa City-area teams prevailed and earned a place in the playoffs. Unfortunately, after Regina's loss to Pella Christian in their playoff opener last week, the finality of these games is being felt by everyone.
This week, the three remaining teams will get their first taste of postseason action as they open the first round of the Class 3A, 4A, and 5A playoffs. Every game will start at 7 p.m.
City High Little Hawks (6-3) at Johnston Dragons (6-3)
With a chance to repeat last year's trip to the Dome, the City High Little Hawks have their work cut out for them as they kick off the first round of the Class 5A playoffs against a resilient Johnston Dragons squad.
