Top 5 Games-2014-15 Year: Game 3

Hawks Beat Fredericksburg for big win in last year's season.

Hawks lose to Wimberley for another close loss in last year’s season.

 
 Game 5: Canyon Lake   70   Yoakum          52              Basketball
 Game 4: Canyon Lake   vs.  Wimberley 25-21, 21-25, 25-23   Volleyball
 Game 3: Canyon Lake   49   Fredericksburg  31              Football

Canyon Lake had an up and down season so far up to this game with Fredericksburg and beating the Billies would go a long way in giving this team their confidence back with a total win via, offense, special teams, and defense (when they needed The stop).

Two years ago Fredericksburg beat CL at home and did not take any prisoners in this game, winning, 38-14.

This time, Canyon Lake returned the favor as the Hawks not only controlled the clock with their running game, but also had quick answer touchdowns via kick-off returns.

The Billies could not muster any momentum giving up those two special team scores and then add two costly fumbles and Canyon Lake would not look back.

One of those fumbles happened on the one inch line as a Billie lost the ball jumping over the goal line after a jarring hit.

Josh DeVries only had one carry at home in the loss, but on this night, DeVries ran for 120 yards and had Robert Woods join him when he broke the 100 yard barrier too.

Canyon Lake has now rushed for 661 yards the last two years as the Hawks have had success with Fredericksburg these past few years.

The number, 165 is what helped win this game as that number was the total yardage for the two kick-off returns by DeVries and Matt Adams.

Both returns were in the first half and both happened right when the Billies had taken a lead. The first was after a Billies field goal and then Adams return nullified a 17-14 Fredericksburg lead.

Canyon Lake would hold Fredericksburg after that second return and then score with just 1 second on the clock before halftime.

The Hawks would have the ball first to start the second stanza and after taking 7 minutes off the clock ran the score to, 35-17.

Defense would stop Freddie again and Canyon Lake would score again with a little over 3 minutes left in the third quarter, 42-17, giving your Hawks their 28 unanswered points.

Hayden Dubois would score again to finish the game, his fourth touchdown run for this game.

Special Teams:  No Punts and 2 kickoff returns.                     √
Offense: Controlled the clock 33:10 and Fredericksburg 14:50.       √
Defense: 2 stops saving a td and drive giving the CL a quick score. √

The win would turn out to be a game to get Canyon Lake in the Playoff door for the second year in a row.

CL had 7 losses and of those games the Hawks would lose by a touchdown or less in 6 of those evenings.

 Losses              Score               Difference
 Blanco              07-35                  -28
 Wimberley           27-28                  -01
 Lampasas            14-21                  -07
 Liberty Hill        14-19                  -05
 Taylor              31-33                  -02
 Boerne              35-42                  -07
 Rockport-Fulton     21-27                  -06 overtime

That first game with Blanco would be the only contest that Canyon Lake was a no-show and a play here and there could have had a team with a much better season record.

That would explain how Canyon Lake would score more points than they gave up with 2 more losses on their ledger. (365 offense– 310 defense)

This win was big and would set up another run in those playoffs!!

Go Hawks!!

Hawk Football Tunnel Fund Raiser

Rendition of what the Hawk Tunnel will look like

Rendition of what the Hawk Tunnel will look like

Greetings:
We are writing this note to ask for your assistance in helping us raise funds for this much needed ‘NEW HAWK TUNNEL.’

We would like to move out on this fund raiser immediately so we get this tunnel before the beginning of school year, with this being said, we need to place an order ASAP!

As you all know, our HAWKS’ Football team is in need of a new and safer tunnel. Our current tunnel finally died before the second playoff game last season, the motor broke before the game started and the tunnel has several small holes throughout which will require maintenance soon.

We took the liberty of looking into another tunnel and getting the plan approved by our Booster Club and Coach Drum.

Our booster club has agreed to allow the use of the tax deductible form for those making donations toward this tunnel and approved a listing of names of those that contributed to a one pager in our program.

Top 5 Games for 2014-15 School Year-Game #4

Game 5: Canyon Lake 70 Yoakum 52    Basketball

Game 4 in the count down of the Top 5 games played this past season will certainly be a surprise to some of you since this game did not involve a Varsity team.

This year, Canyon Lake had many sub-varsity teams that finished at the top district races as Mountain Valley keeps feeding some salty classes to the halls in CL that are transferring to a sporting event.

The Hawks had a break out year in Volleyball this season, but many times when a Varsity team comes through with a good season, the Freshman and Junior Varsity might not be as talented.

You might say that those Varsity teams were successful because they needed those younger players to help get them in a better position to compete in those all important district games.

Wimberley has been a thorn in the side of Hawk fans ever since the first year of competition and this past season, the Junior Varsity made great strides as they too were a much improved group of ladies that will be ready to take the baton from those Senior Volleyball players.

Canyon Lake’s Varsity finished by hitting the 30 win plateau, but one of the better games played came during a home game against Wimberley.

The Varsity had an undefeated district record as did Wimberley in the first half of the round robin of district games and the stands would fill up with more people to ever witness a home game.

MVMS Beats Canyon MS with Two Come-Backs, 9-8

Brian Robinson and Derek Peters were both instrumental in 2 comebacks over CMS

Mountain Valley Baseball team had a different ending to their game on Thursday against Canyon than the previous week in their loss to Smithson Valley Middle School.

First, the Hawks won, but more than that was how these two games played out.

Last week, MVMS had an incredible comeback in their last inning, only to lose the game in the first extra inning after the comeback by two runs.

This game, the Hawks not only forged back like their previous week, but on this night took things further and had a two for one in regards to coming back.

“One of those games that gives our team some experience as they want to win and they never quit,” Head Coach Raymond Amaro said. “In our very first game with Canyon we came back and we had to focus in practice and when we had bad things happen we needed to be positive.”

MV Hawks Get Help from Hinze in ‘Ketchup’, 10-4

Marley Carrizales, Grace Hinze, and Maddy Puente pose after 10-4 Win over Canyon

Canyon came without the Lake this week in their loss to the Mountain Valley Hawks, 10-4.

The Hawks started shaky as Canyon scored 3 runs in the first giving MV a wake-up call after winning their first game to start the season over this same team.

Grace Hinze was in the circle and Canyon started with the first four out of five batters reaching base. Giving up only 3 runs was a good omen as the start could easily been worse.

“My Coach always tells me to relax,” Hinze started. “Honestly in the first inning I was jittery and nervous because this was a big team and we were going for district.”

Hinze was all business like for the rest of this game as the Cougars only scored one more run in the last inning when this game was well in control.

This will be fun as each athlete can only be entered in 5 events just like Coach Troy Moses and Coach John Barthels would need to do in entering his players before a meet.

There are also just three entrants for each event. On the girls side, The ReSporter, needed to take certain girls off an event since some of their runs would put them over that 5 event limit.

Mariah Ellis comes to mind as she is in the top three, counting Relays, six times and so there are some events The Resporter went to the next best time. Caitlyn Collins was another athlete that was in the top three multiple times.
