Mountain Valley 7th Grade gathering for their first of many after game talks with a score that far exceeds their competition.
Mountain Valley Middle School 7th Grade started their football career with a kick-off return for a touchdown.
Nelson Madera did the damage with a little help from his friends as he found a seam down the right sideline and ran for pay dirt.
“I just thought, ‘I can’t get tackled’,” Madera said while stiff arming this ReSporter. “It was awesome and we just want to get better and never stop trying.”
A little help from a friend came for Madera’s run, when Ethan Slater had a clearing block, that took out two Texans in pursuit and leaving Madera a clear path to the goal line.
“The Coaches teach us everything and it is those little things that helps us to do a good job,” Slater said with conviction. “They (Coaches) want to make sure all the little details are thought about….it was great being able to complete Madera’s run with a block and getting him out of trouble for the TD.”

Pre/Game: CL Hawks @ Wimberley Texans Sept. 19 7:30 pm
History: Wimberley lead series 5-1.
2008 CL Hawks 07 Texans 41
2009 CL Hawks 15 Texans 38
2010 CL Hawks 18 Texans 38
2011 CL Hawks 14 Texans 50
2012 CL Hawks 03 Texans 40
2013 CL Hawks 28 Texans 13
This Season Game Results:
CL Hawks 07 Blanco 35 Texans 00 La Vernia 28
CL Hawks 43 Smithville 14 Texans 31 Giddings 34
CL Hawks 38 Marion 06
Wimberley has only played two games so far, as last week lightening, was the culprit in halting their last contest.
The Texans enter this game with an 0-2 record but their offense improved ten fold in their loss to Giddings.
Canyon Lake will come into this game with a two game winning streak and a chance to beat Wimberley two games in a row to boot.
Winning on the road would be a huge feather in the Hawks dressing as well.
CL’s defense has been just as important in helping the past two game wins. Both games are in the top 10 for yardage yielded with Marion being the best game ever on that side of the ball holding those Bulldogs to less than 100 yards of offense.

Bracken Christian Warriors will be playing their 100th game since they first donned an uniform back in 2006.
This Warrior team will also be looking for their 77th victory which for all the math majors, would make figuring out that Bracken would have a 77% winning percentage.
Bracken has had only one losing season which was their first year when that Warrior team could only muster one win. Since that year there has not been a year where eight wins or more had not been reached.

Canyon Lake Freshman Volleyball team won their first District 26-4A game when they came back from a one game deficit to beat the Yoakum Bulldogs, 24-26, 25-
CL Hawk Freshman Volleyball talk with Coach Ridgeway after Yoakum win
21, 25-19.
“I am proud of their fight and the comeback,” Head Freshman Coach Tosha Ridgeway said in response to this win.
The Hawks seemed to have everything under control in that first contest, when Yoakum took the lead on an eight service point rally.
CL responded with a four point run of their own but in the end the Bulldogs snatched that first victory and put the Hawks in a hole.
It was in that second game when CL found themselves down 8-10, and Coach Ridgeway substituted Chloe McCuthen in to serve.
The rest would be history as McCuthen would help rally the Hawks with a four point service and help give enough of an edge to pull out a huge game tying victory.
“I usually come in for the second game,” McCuthen said astutely. “I usually don’t serve that many times in a row either but it felt good to serve consistently.”
McCuthen might be a very focused young lady as she did not realize that after her last serve, Canyon Lake, had taken the lead.
“I thought we were still losing,” Mathematician McCuthen said. “I told myself that I was not going to look at the scoreboard until I lost the score….and I was surprised!”
McCuthen would carry on, with her second game heroics, when the third game was still to close to call. Another ace would increase that score for a 16-11 lead and the Hawks would finish off Yoakum, 25-19 in that thriller match.
From Left to Right: Alysha Perez, Hanna White and Chloe McCuthen.
Alysha Perez seemed to get more energy as the game progressed as her kills seemed to be a lot more lethal as each point was scored.
“I was just trying to help the team out,” Perez said. “I was thinking to have faith in ourselves and just get our passes down so our sets will help us get to the ball….I think if we can keep playing hard and believe in ourselves then we can have a good year.”
That was certainly the case on this night when climbing back from that opening game loss turned out to be a game of beauty.
Another good server was Hanna White as her jump serve was a thing of beauty that seemed to be just skimming the net and putting her opponent on the ropes.
“I started with my jump serve when I turned 12, after I had mastered my other serve,” White said. “This was a good game because we got to pick our heads up and push through that first game.”
This Yoakum team also had some runs and in that second game White knew that Canyon Lake could turn the tide.
“I knew we could get one pass up and then we could stop their run,” White said as her team not only stopped their run but also had a chance to walk these Bulldogs back to their bus with a loss.
A good first district win and now CL can work on getting another win this Friday when they travel to Gonzales.
Go Freshman Hawks!!!
Canyon Lake working on some dance moves in win over Yoakum Bulldogs
CL Hawks win first District 26-4A contest against Yoakum Bulldogs in a much closer than you think 3-0 victory, 27-25, 25-15, 25-22 on Tuesday night.
Canyon Lake stopped their eight game district losing streak in the process and now have evened their all time record at 112 all.
Another rung on CL’s ladder would be a 21-8 overall record and climbing up to 13 games over .500 for this season.
The first game was a see/saw affair as CL enjoyed a 16-11 advantage and then the Bulldogs got a hold of the Hawks like his owner just gave the Bulldog a bone.

Silver Bracket Champions from left to right. Dana Buhr, Zoe Edwards, Landry Hollums, Kaylie Duke, Samantha York, Kat Weber, Felicity Niestemski, Daniella Bustamante, Faith Hasness, Kaitlyn White, Abby Freund, and Sierra Ramsey
Canyon Lake’s JV Volleyball team came home from Wimberley holding a 1st Place Silver Bracket trophy.
Another Hawk team that is starting to jell as this year’s schedule continues.
The Hawk JV had some new faces starting this year which made this season a little longer to get each player on the same page with their communication.
One game in particular had been on this team’s mind when CLJV was beaten in Lockhart three weeks ago. In that game, the Hawks, had an eight point lead in that third match and a chance for their first win.
That is when all those communication gremlins showed up on the court that night and Lockhart found their groove for a comeback win.
“I think this tournament really helped us to gel as a team,” Head JV Coach Megan Helmey said. “I can see the girls working together and trusting each other more.”
