So far The ReSporter has Michael Brady, Travis Walker, and Ross Waglardo as three of the best baseball athletes during their stay at Canyon Lake.
Picking this team is a much tougher task than softball as there has been many more players to play while most of softball students were 3 or 4 year players.
This is to say, there will be several people that can make a case for a different set of players for this team and The ReSporter would not be hurt by that assessment.
With the 3 players that have been picked, The ReSporter feels that those 3 students would need to be on everyone’s ballot.
Drew Riccio will be our next pick as this young man could bring more than just his athletic skills, he would be that player needed in the dug out for preparing the team for any battle no matter what inning in the game.

Baseball | Comments Off on Hawk’s Baseball All-Time Players
Travis Walker was a four year starter for the Hawks
The ReSporter had requests of having an All-Star Baseball team to mirror recent articles made for Hawk Softball team.
Hope you enjoy this two part rendition.
Giving you thoughts on who should be on this team will be tough with so many players that deserve mention.
The ReSporter will start with giving four players for this two part series.
Michael Brady will be our catcher for this team as this young man was very good in throwing out base runners while leading all players with the best batting average at .364, while having more walks than strikeouts (48 bb/44 so) during his career.

Baseball | Comments Off on Baseball: All-Time & 2015 Season Top 4
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.

Vicky Henderson would do whatever it took to get an out
The ReSporter will finish out the best Hawk Softball players and dream what kind of game these players would have if they actually were on the same team.
Last article had Missy Romero pitching, Alexis Robinson at first base, Brianna Young as the catcher, and Carly Dubois holding down center field.
The dream batting order (so far):
cf Carly Dubois
p Missy Romero
1b Alexis Robinson
c Brianna Young
Next on the All-Hawk team would be Kelsey Ahrens who just finished her career with several stats with her name at the top.
Ahrens is another player that was not selected just for her bat, she was a good third baseman that was ranked high too.

Haden Lee worked a pinch hit and stolen base in limited action in Tuesday’s game
Canyon Lake finished their last home game with a loss to Yoakum last Friday night as errors kept the game out of reach for the home squad, 9-2.
The score might not look close, but up until that final inning, Canyon Lake was still within striking range of pulling off a win, with a 4-2 deficit.
Baseball can be tough sport as Yoakum capitalized with timely hits, while the Hawks could score only one run after having 3 consecutive singles to start the 5th inning with just one run being scored.
The Hawks ran out of steam in that last inning giving up 5 runs and too many runs to get back into the game.

Hawks JV split their games with Gonzales, Monday night after a razor thin loss in the night cap, 3-2.
Runs galore in the first game (CLJV 14 Gonz 7) turned to finding runs anyway you could in the night cap and Gonzales finding one more run in the win.
Canyon Lake did use four pitchers in the night game as Coach Brandon Durst was quick with the trigger once a Hawk Pitcher found it rough going.
Avery Montgomery was, johnny on the spot, as his stint on the mound helped keep the game close when he entered with the bases loaded and no outs in the 3rd inning.
“I was hoping I could throw strikes and I got my confidence up and then started throwing as hard as I could,” Montgomery said with precision. “When I start a game I find it harder to fall into a rhythm than when I close a game.”

2012 Graduate Missy Romero
The ReSporter wants to give the All-Hawk Softball Team and then you can also see below, the Top Ten in Hawk Stats based on one season of play.
Hope you enjoy both articles.
Canyon Lake would be able to put a pretty ‘Salty’ group of young ladies on the field if you could bring players together while they were in their hay day while in school.
First on the list would be Missy Romero who not only was a good pitcher, but her bat and glove was certainly one of the bests in school history.
The ReSporter will put Missy as the player in the circle for this team as she finished her career with a 2.77 ERA and 641 strikeouts.

Hawks dominate in the Hurdles
Canyon Lake now has two athletes continuing into the Region Meet in Kingsville as Bailey Drum and Brandon Courtney punched their ticket in the hurdle events.
Drum placed with a 4th place finish in the 100 Meter Hurdles, while Courtney qualified with his personal best 300 Meter Hurdle run finishing with 39.68 time and a second place finish.
Region Meet will be run May 1-2 at Kingsville A&M on Friday and Saturday.
The other Hawk Athletes performed admirable as they finish out this track season.
In both 4×400 Meter Relay races, the Hawk’s Boys and Girls improved their time and the Girls had a Hawk Record when they passed by the finish line, 4:09.66 beating the 2013 Hawk Mile Relay team by almost a full second.
