CL Hawks Lose to Wimberley, 6-1

Gordon the Plumber Supports Hawk’s Baseball

Canyon Lake finished their scoring drought with the 34th inning but that run was still not enough to stop Wimberley, losing 6-1 on Tuesday night.

The Hawks are still trying to find a remedy for their offensive woes as they will hopefully find lightning in a bottle when they face La Vernia this Friday.

“We have tried everything,” Head Baseball Coach Trent Dunavant said. “You can’t reinvent the wheel and we are not playing bad and we had some good pitching….they (Wimberley) did things a little better.”

No errors but Wimberley kept the pressure up and finally broke through from the fifth inning on, scoring 6 runs in those final three innings.

It is the little things that Canyon Lake just cannot get going at right times to help in run production.

“We can’t get a bunt when we need to move a player in a position to score,” Coach Dunavant continued. “This is all mental and not a mechanical thing…everybody (the players) knows what has been going on and they start to press when they go to bat.”

With 8 more hits than what CL finished with, the Texans certainly had enough chances to finally break through and win the game.

Still early in the race for a chance of making the playoffs, but the Hawks need to make a statement game to turn the tide on this season.

Cody Powell did respond with a home-run in that final inning and that will need to spread among the other Hawk players continue this season.

Go Hawks!!
