The Waukon girls basketball team put together an undefeated week on the court with a pair of victories, one each in and outside of Northeast Iowa Conference play, as well as one of each of those being at home and on the road.

Improving to a 9-4 season record, including a 7-1 mark to further solidify second place in the current Northeast Iowa Conference (NEIC) standings behind Class 3A top-rated Crestwood, the Indians are next scheduled to play host to Oelwein Friday, January 19 for their only competition date this week.
