Bracken Christian finished their season battling all the way in their loss to Veritas, 62-13.
“I hate going out this way for the Seniors,” Head Coach Lloyd Fields said. “The team stepped up and played very well…we never quit and did we did not quit in August when we knew we would be outmanned and outnumbered…but this team fought all the way.”
Bracken finishes last game of season against Austin Veritas
The Warriors still had problems in recovering that dastardly on-side kick helping speed up this loss.
Veritas controlled the line of scrimmage especially with their defensive line and the Warriors just did not have enough bodies to put up enough resistance against that line’s onslaught onto whoever the Bracken player with the ball would be.
Noah Boriack could only throw his passes away for many of the plays as he struggled to get open to find a receiver or get open to run.
“We started off slow and up until about 36 points it finally hit that this would be our last game,” Boriack said. “We gave it our all and showed heart when the game was finished.”

Great Game
Canyon Lake has been down this road before….it was four years ago when the Hawks lost in the second round on a field goal try that missed crossing the bar by inches.
This time the heartbreak was in the form of an overtime game, a first for Canyon Lake and Rockport-Fulton pulled out a squeaker, 27-21.
Senior Linebacker Austin Acosta making the stop
“My hat goes off for them,” Head Coach Charley Drum said. “They made the stop and we didn’t.”
Coach Drum was speaking about the two possessions during that overtime period.
“This is one of the toughest losses,” Drum said with finality. “Especially when you are looking at the Seniors after the game….I’m proud of our Seniors.”
CL started this game with a lot of energy as the defense held the Pirates to two punts on their first two possession while Canyon Lake sandwiched those defensive stops with a Josh DeVries 60 yard bolt down the left sideline and a quick Hawk lead, 7-0.
That drive encompassed just two plays for 63 yards and a huge momentum shot.

Coaches Corner with Bracken’s Coach Lloyd Fields
The ReSporter: Hey Coach, I heard it will be raining this Saturday, who does that favor if anyone?
Head Coach Lloyd Fields
Coach Fields: “Yeah, I heard there might be a 100% chance of rain. I don’t think it will make any difference, the field is turf and so that would make it equal for both teams.”
The ReSporter: You had a tough game last time you faced Austin Veritas…what are your thought about this week’s game?
Coach Fields: “I know that they were excited when they got off the bus for our game and we were coming off a bye week and I just felt like they were a lot more fired up than our team…I just don’t know what their mind set will be when they play us this week.”
The ReSporter: You had a game last week in the first round and you have mentioned in the past how you like to play a game and not take a week off before the playoffs start…

Coaches Corner with Canyon Lake’s Charley Drum
This is certainly a big week for the Hawks and The ReSporter had a chance to catch up with Coach Drum for this week’s edition of the Coaches Corner.
Canyon Lake’s Head Coach Charley Drum
The ReSporter: Can Coach Moses read minds better than his coaching friends from Rockport?
Coach Drum: “Yeah, they will know our offense, but we can be a little more diverse than they are. We kind of have something to compare.”
The ReSporter: Do you know if Rockport-Fulton played a team that runs the slot-t?
Coach Drum: “I don’t think they did.”
The ReSporter: Well, when I think back on last year in our game with Navarro, you could tell that they were just more advanced with this type of offense both defensively and offensively in our game with them.

There are two Hawk players that have been playing for Canyon Lake during the last part of the season when Will Joyner joined the team for a game with Smithville and then invited again near the end of this season.
Freshman Will Joyner and Jacob Foster relaxing at a Hawk Basketball game
You would see Joyner on kick-off teams and also playing on the defensive side of the ball these past few games.
Meanwhile Senior Ian May went down over two weeks ago and CL had Jacob Foster filling that void on the offensive line.
Both of these players had carved a nice niche with that Freshman Class as that team has been heralded as the calvary to help stave off an indian attack on the local village.
Yes, that village might have been able to hold their own, but having the Calvary joining this fight will make those losses in war to be reduced.

Junior Running Back Robert Woods waiting for the Offensive Line’s next hole to plow through
The Hawks are presently 0-2 when facing teams in the second round of playoffs.
Back in 2010, Canyon Lake, was pitted against a Somerset team that had a ton of excitement and experience and in the end it was the Bulldogs that were smiling after a missed field goal when time expired.
During that two game stint in the 2010 playoff season, CL had won their first half in both games by a 52-13 advantage and in that first game with Burnet the Hawks withheld a furious rally to hold on with a Bi-District win, 27-20.
Somerset was let off the hook in that Area matchup when the CL’s Juan Martinez was just short on a 42 yard field goal with no time left on the clock.
Martinez was true on a 40 yard field goal at the end of the first half in that same game which proved to be the Hawk’s last points for that season.
