The ReSporter: Coach Katie McWhorter has just completed her first year as Canyon Lake’s Girls Soccer and we would first like to congratulate you and your team for making the playoffs this season.
Give us your overall assessment of this season?
Coach McWhorter: “I am very proud of this season. My girls worked very hard, and despite some inexperience on the team and many injuries, we managed to come in third place in our district and make it to playoffs.”
The ReSporter: With so many players on your squad, tell us how this might be a great building block for future campaigns.
Coach McWhorter: “This season was my first at Canyon Lake, and I am definitely hoping that this season is the beginning of something special for Canyon Lake soccer. It will be hard losing our seniors, but I am looking forward to seeing the new crop of talent from the middle school, and also seeing my current girls develop into stronger, more skilled players.”

At least this was not a ‘Heart’ breaker game, but it hurt just the same as Canyon Lake had pitching,
The Hawks Tyler Vinson
hitting and fielding woes all come to the same party at the same time in their loss to Fredericksburg, 12-6.
The Billies sent nine batters to the plate in that first inning giving CL a taste of what might happen, but then Canyon Lake also responded with five runs in their next two innings to take a one run lead and momentum.
Four of CL’s six hits were in those first two innings as they could only scrape across to more runs in this game.
Some very good defensive gems were also present at this party that turned bad.
JJ Nance had a great play in right field when he fielded a hard hit single and threw the first base runner out at second base.
Kyler Huff in centerfield also threw out a runner trying to advance to third in that first inning resulting in a double play on a fly ball out.
Nick Cahill then pegged a runner trying to score on a single at home plate and Catcher Michael Brady had the honors of tagging a Billie on the ear.
A double play started by SS Peyton Sipila in the second inning kept Fredericksburg at bay by letting Pitcher Ryan Hutcheson facing the minimum.

CL’s Softball team was finally subdued by the Texans as they lost their lead and were succumbed, 12-5 on
Senior Vicky Henderson
Tuesday night.
The Hawks had a one run lead when errors and walks finally took its toll and caused an eight run inning that was too much to overcome.
Kelsey Ahrens and Liz Henderson both led Canyon Lake with two hits a piece.
Vicky Henderson had a squeeze bunt and two rbi’s in this contest that kept this game in limbo until that last inning.
The Hawks outhit Wimberley but they also out errored the Texans and just gave our friends to the north too many base runners adding in all of the free passes (walks).
Canyon Lake will turn around for another game in Boerne this Thursday as they will try to get back on track before the Easter Break.

Hawks had a walk in the park with two wins in Wimberley on a cold Monday night.
Pitcher Hayden Dubois Wins Nightcap of Double Header Sweep in Wimberley
Canyon Lake outhit the Texans by 13, but walking nine players kept this game close as the Hawks completed a double header sweep after a 7-6 win in their first game.
“We won two tight ball games tonight,” Coach Brian Owens said. “It is those little things with the teams enthusiasm and communication on the field that win tight ball games.”
“Nick Kissell, coming in for Austin Headrick in that first game when the game was on the line and holding Wimberley that allowed us to comeback and William Volz doing the same thing in game two.”
Starting pitcher, Hayden Dubois had a no-hitter when Coach Owens went to the mound in the bottom of the fourth after allowing a couple of runs on walks.
Yes, it was a no hitter, but with seven walks Dubois certainly did not have command of the plate on this night.
“I went to get him because he was getting tired,” Coach Owens said. “He played hard in that first game and his legs were dead.”
On if he thought about letting Dubois continued pitching since he had a no hitter, “I did not even know he had a no hitter. But even if I did know, he (Dubois) would not complain because he is a team player.”

Sophomore Mariah Ellis in 4x400 Relay
The Lady Hawks have an impressive team with many athletes taking their skills to another level.
These students below have been researched from meets they have scored in so far this season.
Boerne is the only one team with no results posted from last week. All of District 27-3A other teams are up to date and this is how they would finish if the meet was held this week.
Also, this is not an exact science since these times and distances were held on different days and weather conditions.
Just read and enjoy a ‘what if’ they ran a District 27-3A Track Meet yesterday results below.
One more item to consider: Canyon Lake’s Junior Varsity would score more points that Boerne and so you will see our JV times and distances below and those points have also been posted to the Hawks Varsity point total.
Except for the Relay Events. Yes, the JV has better times than other district teams….Impressive.

This Week in Hawk Country, CL has a Playoff game at home against Boerne Champion who finished second in District 54-4A.
Canyon Lake Girls Soccer earned this right when they tied Wimberley in their regular season final last Friday night.

The ReSporter goes through track results of each District 27-3A school and compares each athlete to
Senior Eduardo Covarrubias in Last Year's 4x400 Relay
see where they would place against each other if that event was held today.
Things to remember while looking over the following results.
1. Fredericksburg has not been posted yet…still waiting on results.
2. There are mistakes with papers which makes this not as exact.
3. Track meets are held in different areas of the state so wind and weather needs to be given some wait. No wind in one meet might result in better times in other meets.
4. Competition, many athletes might not have made a high enough place to get their results printed. (Ex. Athlete ‘A’ had a 52 second 400 meter run but did not finish in that meets top six. That would result in no points for the team and their result not being published)
The ReSporter gets all of Canyon Lake’s results and can see where they would score, but other schools that would not happen. This would help show the CLJV where they stand in district.
Also, being a ‘Homer’, The ReSporter will always give Canyon Lake’s athletes all ties which means more points for the home team.
Final point: Canyon Lake has had the best 1600 Meter Relay team in this region the past couple of years and has not had a good showing yet giving several points to other District 27-3A teams and hence a very close race as you can see below.
Fredericksburg is still the team to beat this season mainly based on having so many athletes, so when a CL athlete does not compete in more than one event, then that will also hurt a team’s point total.

Lady Hawks Soccer Team are now going where no CL Team Sport has gone in these past two years,
Two Football years
Two Basketball years
Two Volleyball years
….you get the idea, it has been a while for the Hawks and now hopefully there might be more sports to follow.
Yes, Canyon Lake has finished higher in Track and Field these past couple of years, but Track doesn’t go as a team after district has finished.
The Hawks needed a win for finishing in third place outright, but another tie would have a different way of determining how these two teams would be put in their respected playoff brackets.
So, Head Coach Katie McWhorter would need to win a coin flip to decide which team might face the 6th ranked team in State for their first round opponent.
Both teams could only muster a goal a piece for this dramatic finish. No, not a penalty kick, just a coin flip.
“I was able to call the flip,” Coach McWhorter said. “Before I called the coin toss, I asked my team captains what they wanted me to call. Lauren Justis had to sit out this game due to a concussion, and she and Jasmine Smith have been great leaders for the team this year, so I really felt it was their call to make. Jasmine asked me to call heads, and we ended up winning the tie breaker with that.”

Girls Soccer | Comments Off on Hawks and Texans were All-Tied up after Doubleheader Soccer Games
The Lady Hawks had the lead and then a dam broke and C-Lake could not hold the Bulldogs in their 12-2 loss on Friday night at Hawk Field.
Canyon Lake had just one error in those first three innings and a small one run lead and showed much promise.
There were however a lot of errors in that Lake and when that dam broke, CL had seven in their last three innings of work.
“We played hard early and had momentum and that one inning did us in,” Head Coach John Gallagher surmised. “We need to overcome those mistakes, but once it started, then it just got worse.”
First Three Innings Second Three Innings
Hits given up 0 8
Runs given up 0 12
Errors committed 1 7
Night and day for Canyon Lake and when those leaks started the Hawks did not have enough fingers to plug all those holes in that dam and the inevitable happened forming a Canyon within minutes.
Alexis Robinson did reach base all three plate appearances and Kelsey Ahrens did have a shot that almost cleared the fences but it was way too little to help save this dam.
Now Canyon Lake will travel to Wimberley this next Tuesday with a game that hopefully they can keep that momentum for a whole game.
