                       Let’s Go Hawks!!

Canyon Lake won a game that was needed to the Nth degree and Griffen Williams helped with the greatest hitting night in The Lake’s History.

The Griff was 5 for 5 with 3 home runs while batting in 11 helping take a lead (3-0) in the first inning. Then another home run that regained the lead, (9-6) and for a little extra spice had a Grand Slam for the eventual victory, 17-11 during his last plate appearance.

Looking at the line-score below showing two schools in a heavy weight fight as each inning but one had just one school scoring runs.

Do note that the team needed to reach base in order for Griffen to have a chance to add an exclamation point to this game.

It was a must win game for your Hawks and as the game progressed many fans were seen going to the parking lot when Griffen came to bat.

New Advertiser that wants the Hawk Nation to Succeed!! Just like CL’s win over the Texans.

The Reason? Moving vehicles so the Baseball Size Hail would not damage property.

Griffen Williams’ 11 rbi’s, stand alone, tied the Wimberley offense and Canyon Lake finishing off their final district foe in Bandera before District 27-4A reverts back to previous district round robins with a two game weekly series.

Let’s GO HAWKS!!
