Hawks Strike-Out Apaches in Win, 5-1

Senior Nick Cahill finished his Hawk career trailing only Michael Brady with a sparkling .354 batting average

Canyon Lake pulled off a season ending victory over Gonzales last Friday night as Cody Powell struck out 14 Apaches in the win, 5-1.

In a 7 inning game you need to record 21 outs as a visiting team to record a victory and when your southpaw pitcher is on, then 14 strikeouts will also be a pitchers best defense in the victory.

Those strikeouts equates to 2 out of 3 outs per inning and the Hawks rode that train for their second win over Gonzales this season.

Nick Kissell led the Hawks with 2 hits and also had a walk for a decent on base percentage.

Colton Avey doubled for the only extra base hit as their were several Hawks playing in their last game for Canyon Lake.

All the damage in this game happened in the first two innings as both teams finished the game putting up 0’s for runs.

Hawk fans will also be missing one of their best infielders in Garrett Winters who played third base and he had a way of turning the ‘Hot Box’ into an ‘Ice Box’.

Congrats on the win Hawks and we will be looking forward to next year’s edition.

Go Hawks!!
