Hawk 4×400 relay breaks CL Record with 4:07.85 time Bailey Drum, Skylar Hurst, Emma Gray, Sophia Thorpe
Canyon Lake’s next stop will be Liberty Hill in two weeks for the Area Meet to qualify for Region Meet in Kingsville.
The top 4 in each event got their ticket punched for this chance and the Hawks had several athletes who had personal best finishes which might be an indication that the record breaking might not be finished.
CL’s Boys and Girls both finished in 4th place in their district meet held in Cuero this past Wednesday and Thursday.
Hurdles was the strength of both Boys and Girls as Bailey Drum and Brandon Courtney both lowered their best times in this meet.
Drum had a 36 point meet scoring in all 5 events she entered. that included 3 first place finishes while qualifying for the Area Meet in 4 of those 5 events.
Canyon Lake had points every time Drum walked out to compete, as this future Angelo State Volleyball player proved she can handle track & field too.
With Drum’s 36 points, she passed 200 points for the year and now resides with 213 tallies and more meets ahead for this tireless athlete.
“After all of this, I don’t have a lot of energy left,” Drum noted after her final event. “I honestly did not think I was running that fast and I just attacked every hurdle.”
That last comment was in response to lowering her best 300 meter hurdle race by over 2 seconds.

Canyon Lake will embark this Wednesday for their 2 day trek of climbing a hill as both the Boys and
Girls track teams have legitimate chances for claiming a district championship.
This year has seen many firsts for Canyon Lake, as the Volleyball team claimed the first district crown when they finished District 26-4A undefeated.
Football made the playoffs for the 3rd year in a row while both the Boys Basketball and Boys Soccer had good enough seasons to find themselves playing in their first playoff games.
Girl’s Basketball returned to playoff action, after a 5 year hiatus while the Girls Soccer team will continue in their playoff journey going into the 3rd round as they play for an Area Crown on Tuesday.

Canyon Lake is now the time for desperation as another one run loss has the Hawks looking at a situation where some help will be needed and wins have to start tomorrow.
“We are playing not to lose instead of playing for a win,” Head Coach John Gallagher said. “We worked hard and our effort was there.”
CL still has a mathematical shot for the playoffs but like someone with cataracts they don’t need to be driving while it is dark outside.
Errors were the culprit again as one of those dastardly mistakes led to 2 runs in the top of the 7th inning and an eventual loss.
Alexis Robinson had just 3 walks but those were all bunched up during the same inning while the Hawks decided to have 2 errors that same inning giving the Bulldogs 4 runs without a hit.

The ReSporter will go over some Track thoughts the next few days as they prepare for next week’s District 26-4A Meet in Cuero.
First off, Canyon Lake has depth and that should translate into more points.
Second off, the Hawks have more Senior participants this year and that has been paying dividends for both the girls’ and boy’s teams.
That has been one of the most disappointing aspects of track as those Seniors usually get a hint of Senioritis and forego the last part of their year not on the cinders or many sports.
The ReSporter’s advice for those young people that read this site, “You only live once and that Senior year can be rewarding to finish your race in grand fashion.”

Avery Montgomery has Hawk’s first District 26-4A Win (picture by Tysha Dunavant)
Canyon Lake’s Baseball team finally got their first district win when the Hawks used a .576 on base percentage in getting 11 runs for this come back victory.
Avery Montgomery and Gavin Dietrich pitch gem in win over Yoakum
“I had a good feeling about that 6 run inning,” Head Coach Trent Dunavant stated clairvoyantly. “I just felt something as we have been getting better every game and in every practice. The game is starting to slow down for them.”
The Yoakum Bulldogs were already chewing on their bone with a 6-2 lead after the first 3 innings but that was when the Hawks would swoop in for a steal, taking that bone from the Dogs.
CL used a 9 unanswered runs during those middle innings as Avery Montgomery settled in, on the pitching mound, while the Hawks manufactured 8 consecutive batters to reach base safely and resulting in 6 runs.
This inning had one play that would give the Hawks a ton of confidence and it came as a missed suicided squeeze play that had Cade Dunavant in a pickle being almost home and survival mode.

Track and Field Coach Troy Moses
The ReSporter: Right now you are in the midst of figuring out a chess match. What is the biggest challenge as you enter the names for next week’s Meet?
Coach Moses: “This is a unique year, just because we have so many talented young men. The biggest challenge is not knowing what the other schools are going to do!!!! There are so many different scenarios. We just have to go with what we feel will help us get as many points as possible.”
The ReSporter: The scrimmage yesterday hopefully answered some questions for what happens next week, can you give us some idea of how closer you are to figuring out how you will run the Relays vs. Open Events?
Coach Moses: “Our number one goal is to win the Team Championship!! We look to score big points in Open Events first, then place people in relays.” Read the rest here »
Go Hawks!!
The ReSporter: This is when you earn the Big Bucks, how hard is it in putting the athletes with the events?
Coach Barthels: “This is the time that we take each girl’s strengths and put them in events that can keep as many girls continuing to the area meet as possible.”
The ReSporter: How do you differentiate between running as an individual vs. putting that person on a relay team?
Coach Barthels: “Everyone wants to win the relays, I am guilty as well, but when you look at numbers and points it gets dicey. Four of your fastest girls can get a total of 20 points on a relay, If you were to use those girls in individual events and could place 1-4 that is worth 28 points…not that you could do that, but it is something I consider when putting girls in events for district. We compare times and combinations of girls that have run the relays and figure which girls can A. Get the points you need and B. Place in the top 4 spots to move on to the next meet. So I have a lot of work to do between now and Sunday when our entries are due.” Read the rest here »
