Volleyball: Starts Season at The Lake, Tue 6pm Against Marion

Chloe Gray, Kylie Rodriguez, Gabby Fory, and Mackenzie Dorn looks to forge a playoff spot this season. Go Lake!
Canyon Lake’s Volleyball season will commence this Tuesday when Marion will travel to the Hawk Nest to open Coach Daniella Villarreal’s 3rd year
Improvement will hopefully continue this campaign after a 9 win start followed with a 17 win last year.
The Hawks missed the playoffs those first two tries in arguably one of the hardest districts in the state.
The Lake looks to change their focus for that word, ‘improvement’’, coming during their district schedule. Navarro has moved to another district this year while adding Long Creek (a new school in New Braunfels) taking that vacancy.
That will leave a recent State Champion Davenport and an always powerful Wimberley still presenting two major hurdles to clear.
Fredericksburg has been a tough out these past few years leaving three schools fighting for that one more spot for a play-off chance.
Bandera who has split with Canyon Lake the last two years and already mentioned Long Creek.
Canyon Lake just finished their first week of team practice after ending last week with two scrimmages on Thursday and Friday.
Head Coach Daniella Villarreal shared her thoughts with the season gets started at 6pm Tuesday on a renovated court, “We play our best when we’re having fun and communicating well together! Our team served tough throughout the scrimmages, which helped keep opponents from running their offense. Out of all the matches, our best performance came on Day 2 against a solid Poth team. We executed well in all aspects of the game and looked like we were clicking on all cylinders.”
Coach Villarreal continued with highlighting some of the players, “Kylie Rodriguez led the team in kills, finding smart shots offensively while also delivering tough serves and providing solid passing and defense in the back row.
Chloe Gray did an excellent job setting and running the offense, making sure all hitters were involved and in position to put the ball away.”
On thoughts as this year gets going…”We’re continuing to build our confidence and communication so we’re prepared for challenges and high-level competition. I’m excited to see this group keep working hard, growing together, and enjoying the season!”
The Hawks will travel to Corpus Christi for their first tournament starting on Friday and then back for another home game against Gonzales, Tuesday 19th starting at 6pm.
