Familiar foes will be postseason opponents on the road to the state tournament for the Washington Demon boys’ basketball team (3-9).

The four other members of the Southeast Conference will compete in the tournament including Fairfield, Fort Madison, Mount Pleasant, and Keokuk. The field also features Chariton, Knoxville, and Oskaloosa. Washington has one win in six games versus teams in their playoff pod.
