The ReSporter: When you have a very quick player to lead off and can get on
Head Softball Coach John Gallagher
with a bunt, why do you bat Robinson first, when she has an opportunity to have players on base more and using her bat to knock then in?
Coach Gallagher: “I look at first, a player that can consistency get on and Alexis Robinson has a high percentage of getting a base hit. When you use a player that bunts well and has speed the defense can read that and play in more. With that player (DuBois) in the two hole you have the ability to slap, bunt, hit, and get that runner over without having to give up an out. It also puts more pressure on the defense not knowing how to play that hitter. Your leadoff hitter after the first at bat usually does not lead off more than once more, and we try to put speed in the 9th spot so she can hit in the bottom of the order. We also try to put contact hitters toward the bottom of the lineup to help with getting on base.”

Corey Shedrock is Safe…..
What a wild week at The Lake.
First off, Girl’s Soccer: The game with Wimberley last Tuesday was a great contest.
Jen Crownover sponsors Hawk Sports. As she asks for your vote this Tuesday.
With so many ebbs and flows and a final outcome that could not have been scripted in hollywood.
That win has Canyon Lake in the driver’s seat for a chance to make it two years in a row of playing in the playoffs. The Hawks will play this coming Friday against Seguin a team CL beat 7-0 earlier this year.
Another win and one stop closer.

Hawks setting the table for a breakout year
Hawks took the title from Blanco in their own backyard when Kat Weber singled in Alexis Robinson in the fifth inning which proved to be enough needed to pull off another milestone for this Canyon Lake club.
Winning a tournament will be another bench mark that can be put on their wall for a team that is on a roll. This game also allowed CL to avenge an earlier loss this year when the Hawks gave up 9 runs in the 5th inning helping Blanco to a 14-11 win.
Robinson pitched another gem in this seven inning battle, giving up one walk and striking out four Panthers.
Robinson also was pretty salty from the batter’s box with a double and triple in this contest.

The ‘Fat Lady’ warmed up her voice a few times in this Canyon Lake and Austin Akins game, but was never called on stage as the Hawks had their biggest comeback ever in a win over the Eagles, 15-14.
Canyon Lake had dug a pretty deep hole when they found themselves down 9-0 in the third inning, as Akins had a grand slam in the first inning and another bomb over the center field fence the that five run third stanza.
The Hawks did take a bite out of these Eagles when left-fielder Cody Powell responded with a two run single in the bottom half of the third.
