Pitcher William Volz
Canyon Lake Junior Varsity took care of Wimberley in their first District 27-3A game giving the Texans a long ride home, winning 6-4.
After a rough start in that first inning, Canyon Lake’s defense buckled down and did not commit another misplay allowing their bats to come alive and their pitchers finish off our neighbors to the north.
William Volz started the first inning having to adjust after some defensive miscues but that learning process is what will pay dividends as this season matures.
“I started pretty good,” Pitcher Volz said. “It kind of makes me think on what I need to work on…I was a little frustrated but then I just let it go and then tried my hardest.”
Volz was commenting on how he approached those first couple of innings while only having a texas leaguer as the biggest hit and no other ball scared the grass in the outfield.

Canyon Lake continues strong run in Lockhart Tournament with another run rule win over Austin Travis, 12-0.
Pitcher Ryan Hutcheson was well in command in this affair without allowing a hit in his four innings of work.
Kyler Huff is on a good hitting pace so far this season as he ripped a triple in this game while driving in two runs.
Canyon Lake started this game on fire scoring five runs and ended up scoring in each inning as the Hawks are over the .500 mark for the first time in three years.
In baseball you need Pitching, Batting, and Fielding and in all three the Hawks got a passing grade.
Ten hits, no errors and a shut out will do wonders for your win-loss column.
Now Canyon Lake will play again in Lockhart at noontime and see about running their streak up to three games.
Wow…there are a lot of threes in this article. Congrats!

Canyon Lake won their first game in the Lockhart Tournament on Thursday against
Head Coach Trent Dunavant
Austin Del Valle, 10-1.
“In other seasons we might have played down to our competition,” Head Coach Trent Dunavant started. “We played a crisp game and I was very pleased on how the players took care of business.”
An onslaught of six runs in the second inning put this game away early and also allowed Sophomore Cody Powell to throw strikes and let the Hawks play defense. Powell averaged a little over 12 pitches per inning.
“We wanted Powell to be in the 15 pitches are lower per inning,” Coach Dunavant said.
Defense came without any errors while CL benefitted from three errors by Del Valle.
Kyler Huff finished the day with three hits, three runs, two rbi’s, and one double.
Daniel Reed and Michael Brady also had doubles in this game.
With a three run 5th inning, the Hawks were able to run rule Del Valle which allowed Powell to go the distance.
That meant Canyon Lake could rest pitchers which will always a good thing for you first tournament of the season.
Now Canyon Lake will play again on Friday, with an early 10am start time. Austin Travis will be in that other dugout, then CL’s final game is Saturday against Austin Lanier with another game before lunch, 11:30 start time.

Canyon Lake Lady Hawks won a pivotal game Tuesday night against Seguin, 4-0 in what could be a landmark contest as this season continues.
To recap this district season, all you need to know is that Canyon Lake needs to beat one team to get them into a playoff spot.
Right now Seguin might be that odd team out which could usher your Hawks into a good situation and another ‘can win’ game with Wimberley might even secure that spot.
“We came out strong,” Head Coach Katie McWhorter started. “We scored our first goal within the first minute of the game.”
Whatever butterflies that might been around was soon a thing of the past as CL took that opportunity to play on the offensive side of the field for much of this night.
Sophomore Christy Fowler had her second hat trick of this season coming through and leading the way for her teammates.

Bracken Christian had battled and won four games in a row in making the playoffs this year, but
Double Post and 4 Blocks by Wendy Johnson and Micaela Michael in Game with Central Texas Christian
they found a match-up that this Warrior team could not stay with for four quarters.
After that first quarter, BCS had a decent result only trailing three points. The Warriors had a lead with a little over two minutes in that quarter until the lid was placed on the rim.
That result had Central Texas Christian scoring 13 unanswered points and forging into a lead that was never relinquished.
BCS had Senior Post Wendy Johnson with 7 of those 9 points in that quarter, while dominating the paint with two blocks.
On a couple of those baskets, Johnson was an easy target displayed by her height on the inbound pass under the Warriors basket.
That play was worth some valuable points getting BCS back into a lead and stopping the Lions momentum. Johnson finished as the only Warrior with double digits, scoring 11 points.
“They (Coaches) picked me because I’m the tallest,” Johnson said.

Play Ball!! Canyon Lake started their season against a solid 4A Marble Falls outfit and had a good
Pitcher Logan Felch
chance of pulling off an impressive win.
But that timely hit just did not find a spot on this field of play leaving a one run deficit to the Mustangs.
Speaking of timely hits, MF could only muster three and that last one happened to bring in three runs with a bases clearing double.
The fifth inning was a case where starter Logan Felch just ran out of gas and could not finish his outstanding start.
Felch had thrown just 11 balls through four innings and had 13 in the fifth giving the Mustangs an opening that was capitalized on.
“You can’t give freebies like that,” Head Coach Trent Dunavant said in responding to also having a MF batter reaching base by being hit by a pitch, loading the bases.
The Hawks have started their season with Marble Falls each year and this game was won by a very slim margin compared to past campaigns.

Missy Romero has started her career off in grand fashion as Copiah-Lincoln
Missy Romero
Community College sports a 9-0-1 record with two of those victories over the No. 5 team in the country.
Romero has a 2-0 pitching record and has also come through in the batter’s box.
In the game against Heartland (IL), Romero tripled and scored their first run and then homered for her first home run that helped extend the Lady Wolves lead to 7-1 two innings later.
In a game with Baton Rouge, Romero collected her second win of her new career when she finished the Lady Bears by allowing 2 runs, while scattering 8 hits, struck out 1 and walked 2 in 5 innings of work.
Romero’s second win was in relief when she helped put out a fire with 2.2 innings and not giving up a run against that same No. 5 rated squad that she helped beat with her bat in the first game.
Congratulations to a fine young lady that is representing Canyon Lake and our community.

The Hawks spring sports will be in full motion as all but Boys Track will have some live action this week.
This year’s Tennis Team has some deserving Athletes that you might want to get out and see as they will be playing Blanco in a dual match starting at CL’s Tennis Courts at 4pm.
The Girls Softball team will have two games at home this week as they will try to improve on their 3-3 record and explosive offensive start against Marion and the Navarro tournament last week.
Both Boys and Girls Soccer will be taking the field with the Boys playing in Seguin and Dripping Springs. The Girls will also mirror that schedule but will play at home. Both teams are 0-1 in District play and will look to get a win against Seguin. Both of these Districts will take four out of five teams to the playoffs so a win over the Matadors will go a long way in helping to cement that playoff spot.
Baseball will start their season with their season opening game at Hawk diamond this Monday night for the varsity. This will be a year where depth will finally be a reality for both Varsity and JV. The Varsity will then have a Tournament in Lockhart.
The JV will also be at home against Wimberley this Friday after a game in Marble Falls on Tuesday. This is another team that has tons of talent and would be a great time to see what type of future will be forthcoming.
The Boys Golf team has had a couple of outings so far this year and will be in hopes of lowering their scores. A good day two weeks ago and not so good last week. (such is life on the links)
Girls Track will be in Boerne to get some work in everything but their Relay teams. Coach Lacey Lambert will be in the process of seeing which girls might be able to get much needed points in the field and running events.
This past couple of years Canyon Lake has seemed to be able to have good Relay teams, especially that coveted Mile Relay event.

One truism you can take from Softball Tournament games when starting out your season is a team does everything they can to see all of their players.
A smiling Lilimae Daily thinking about her next hit.
Hence the third place finish in their pool is not a bad circumstance based on when Coaches are searching for that diamond that might come out in game situations.
The Lady Hawks lost their first game with Poteet, 10-5 but rebounded quite well when they squashed Luling for their final contest, 17-2.
Also note that if CL is working on giving pitchers time in the circle, then you have to surmise that other teams are working on finding those same ‘diamonds’ for their clubs.
Kelsey Ahrens and Cameron Berger both got some circle duties on Saturday as Head Coach John Gallagher is searching for some answers there as well as in the field as several players had an opportunity to show off.
Canyon Lake is sprinkled with many Freshman and Sophomores this year, but it might be those Seniors that will supply the leadership needed by word or action.
