Canyon Lake JV Football Grounds La Vernia, Wins 13-6

Story by Coach Lucas Chapman

The Junior Varsity Hawks survived a late charge by the La Vernia Bears Thursday night in La Vernia to win 13-6. The victory moved the Hawks to 3-0 on the season.

After a 0-0 game at the half, Sophomore Skyler Tschoepe put the Hawks on the board with a 1-yard touchdown run on a quarterback sneak with Jared Bruckman adding the PAT. In the fourth quarter, Tschoepe was at it again, connecting on a 5 yard touchdown strike to Wide Receiver Shane Relkin. The score put the Hawks up 13-0 late in the game.

Down two scorea, La Vernia went to the air and scored on a 20 yard pass with just over 30 seconds to play, Tommy Clark stripped the ball after a short completion, and Cody Powell recovered the fumble to seal the victory.

The Canyon Lake defense was stifling all night long, forcing the Bears to go to the air after stuffing the run for most of the game. When the Bears dropped back to pass, the secondary stepped up with several pass break ups and sure tackling in the open field.

The Hawks return home this week to play the Burnet Bulldogs.
