Bracken Warriors Bag the Jags, 34-27

Bracken Christian Bagged the Jags on Saturday night in a nail biter, 34-27.

Senior Quarterback Sam Hilgendorf

Senior Quarterback Sam Hilgendorf

“This game hinged on three key plays,” Head Coach Lloyd Fields fielded. “The last drive we had showed we have character, we had two tough series near the end of the game on offense and defense, and all of our young man played well.”

This game started with a two play drive from the feet of Running Back Noah Boriack when he had his first run go for 52 yards and helping the Warriors draw first blood.

Boriack would end this game with 5 touchdown runs and that will put him with some pretty good company in BCS lore.

Little Things Turn into a Big Loss to Burnet, 34-7

Canyon Lake could not hold the water back as the Bulldogs scored 27 unanswered points, losing 34-7 on a soggy Homecoming night at Hawk Field.

“We have to figure out how to cut out those little things,” Head Coach Charley Drum started. “We can’t overcome penalties and turnovers and we are lacking in getting big plays.”

These two former district foes from days gone by were still locked into an anyone can win contest well into the third quarter as Burnet just led 13-7 with three minutes left in that quarter.

Then the proverbial dam broke with a rush of passes as Burnet’s Quarterback Derek Kiser passed for 289 yards to finish off the Hawks.

Sometimes a team is just better than what is put out on the field and after this game, the Hawks can safely say this is the case.

CL Freshman Showing improvement in Loss to Burnet, 27-8

Canyon Lake Freshman still making strides while improving with each contest as Burnet came from behind to beat the Hawks, 27-8 last Thursday night at Hawk Stadium.

The Hawks scored their first touchdown of this season after Keith Hutson intercepted a pass on Burnet’s first drive of the game.

That interception and 20 yard return from Hutson set up Canyon Lake on Burnet’s 35 yard line.

Then Tyler Shipman took a hand off on the left side of the line for 32 yards and a first down on the 3 yard line. One play later Shipman got the call again for that first taste of scoring this year.

Head Coach Lloyd Fields

Head Coach Lloyd Fields

The ReSporter: Hey Coach what are you thinking with this week’s game?

Coach Fields: “This will be a game that will come down to two or three key plays and either we will make them or they will make them.”

The ReSporter: That sounds like you feel both teams are pretty even.

Coach Fields: “We are a lot alike and this week’s game will tell us how we are going to come out this season. We are at a cross roads of our season and our kids are really focused.”

The ReSporter: You said the kids are focused, what are they focused on?

Mountain Valley 7th A and B Squads put Bullpups in the Pound

Mountain Valley A squad potty trained the Burnet Bullpups in Thursday night action at Hawk Field, 22-0.

Trenton Lorett decided to get his dog trained and took the Bullpups for several long runs that eventually caused a dog with a long tongue hanging and needing rest.

“When I got hit at the first of the game, it got me mad and that helped me get into the game and I just got faster,” Lorett surmised.

This might be something Mountain Valley Coaches might want to remember when track season starts this next year to help Lorett before he has a race…(do ask his parent’s first though)

Lorett not only averaged over 24 yards per carry, the never be denied runner intercepted a pass before half and 76 yards later had Mountain Valley in control 16-0 in this contest.

“I didn’t look at the clock and I just got the ball and started running,” Lorett said nonchalantly talking about his interception.

This is a fun time for The ReSporter. In 6-man Football you do not find many times when you can find information about your opponent and this is one school that does a great job of giving those entities and this gives The ReSporter a chance to do a more complete report.

Both schools started this year with a loss and are currently working on a two game winning streak.

A lot has changed from this game that was played in 2011 when both schools were working on 15 or more game winning streaks when they met.

Emery-Weiner has one constant that many other 6-man schools cannot possess. They have don’t have to worry about losing a player and possibly canceling a game.

The Bracken Christian parking lot will have a much larger bus occupying a space to bring this group of players.

Hawks Take Out Devine in Volleyball, 25-20, 25-20, 25-23

Canyon Lake continues to make strides at District 27-3A play starts to close in.

On Tuesday night, CL Hawks beat Devine 25-20, 25-20, 25-23.

“I like that we closed them out in three games,” Head Coach Kim Paisley started. “We were prepared and we had excellent footwork in our transition game.”

All three games were tight as Canyon Lake could only get their lead to six points in the second game when they led, 22-16.

The Hawks went through this whole match without having one timeout called.

“We had close scores and I wanted them (CL) to work through it, especially in that third game when Devine went ahead by one.”

This Devine team had just recently beat Comfort and Blanco by 2-0 scores during a tournament in the San Antonio area.

Case in point are those same two schools had beaten your Hawks earlier this season.

Comfort score: 2-0 in the Wimberley Tournament, 25-15 and 25-13.

Blanco score: 3-0 at the Hawk Gym, 25-13, 25-21, 25-22.

Now this Hawk team whitewashed Devine as there were several players that could score points on this night.

Senior Amber Ramsey continues to become a force at the net as she finished with 16 kills and 3 blocks.

“It is better if we have more players that can score and we don’t have to depend on one hitter,” Ramsey said.

In that last contest, Devine had taken the lead, 23-22 and that was the time when you could see the Hawks finish.

“That is because we work in practices with a drill we call scenarios,” Ramsey drilled. “We set the score at 24-22 and then we know not to fall apart when we get into a game….mistakes are going to happen and we can limit those mistakes.”

Canyon Lake had 10 service errors in these three games but they were still able to get a sweep.

“Coach had us work on that (serving) and we run if we miss our serves,” Ramsey finished. “We are more motivated because we don’t want to run.”

Now Canyon Lake is working on a four game winning streak as they prepare to meet Lampasas this Friday night with a 6pm start before Canyon Lake’s football game with Burnet.

A young team that seems to be getting their game going and now a chance to see them in action.

Come out and see how the Hawks perform.

=======================================================

Canyon Lake’s Junior Varsity also came up with a win over Devine, 25-15, 21-25, 25-19.

The Hawks controlled the first game but by coming up short in their next game had CL needing to come back together and get a hold of the third and deciding game.

Kalli Cardenas and Sam York taking it easy after a tough 3 game victory over Devine JV.

Kalli Cardenas and Sam York taking it easy after a tough 3 game victory over Devine JV.

“They were playing scared and they were over thinking their passes and sets,” Head Junior Varsity Coach Leigh Ann Weaver said. “We needed to concentrate on join out and having fun and then when they make mistakes is when they start over thinking.”

That would account for the difference in those first two scores from game one to game two.

There are two freshman playing in this game that helped step up the intensity and eventual victory, Libero Sam York and Kalli Cardenas.

“We needed mental toughness,” Cardenas started. “I know you have to start with the pass and that can help us finish stronger.”

On what was happening after an easy go of it in that first game and if their was some added pressure going into the rubber game.

“I just kept my mind focused because I had a job to do, Cardenas surmised. “Communicating was what we did right in that first game and we just went back to that to win.”

Libero, York was also all over the place in this contest in helping to pull this game out.

“Passing and mental toughness is where I can help influence my teammates and that helps me do better,” York passed.

York was also asked what she was thinking going into that third game.

“Knowing what we did wrong in that second game and to not do it again…we also did a better job of covering our hitters.”

Canyon Lake has a couple of strong classes that are starting to make their mark in Volleyball and coming out to watch these young ladies could be a treat as you get ready for the football game this Friday.

Canyon Lake will be going against Lampasas this Friday at the Hawk Gym.
