One thing we know about the District 26-3A Softball race, is that
Senior Pitcher Missy Romero
Boerne will finish last.
Now the fun stuff starts as the season comes down to the last two games this week.
The ReSporter would like to go over some prognostication for this week’s games.
First thing first….whoever is playing Boerne is going to win that game this week. So, with that being a given, we will give Wimberley and Fredericksburg a win right off the bat (pardon the pun).
That will leave Canyon Lake in another must win situation over Fredericksburg for this Tuesday game. Yes, the Hawks could lose and still make it, but a win would certainly get the cement mixers going for placing this team in the playoffs.
The Hawks could lose to Fredericksburg and still make the playoffs, but the door would not be as wide open.

Canyon Lake is now in the twilight of the 2011-12 season and a little more
Junior Leftfielder Kyler Huff
time will make a lot of difference in what you are seeing now and what might be unveiled next season.
A young CL Baseball team continues to learn the game against older and more experienced teams. What fans need to notice in this sport is that the improvement might not be on the scoreboard, but rather between the ears.
The continued reps for Freshman, Sophomores and Juniors, is what has a chance of turning around the last two campaigns and having another chance for the playoffs.
There are four solid Juniors playing that can hopefully mold a group of underclassman before the first pitch is thrown next season.
Travis Walker is the leader in almost every statistical category for Canyon Lake. It seems he has been a part of the team since his eighth grade year.
Walker is a very solid fielder, and has been primarily at first base this year. Walker also has played behind the plate, third base, and pitcher for the Hawks. He has hovered around the .400 batting average most of this season.

The Bracken Warriors have several athletes that will be on their way to Regional
Head Track Coach Terri Sanders Readies BCS for Regional Meet
Track Meet next week as both the Girls and Boys team finished in fourth place.
The Meet was held in Vandergriff Stadium in Austin last week.
Bracken will be taking six boys and eight girls to Hallettsville while competing in 14 different events.
Katy Wilmotte finished second in the 1600 Meter Run and first in the 3200 Meter Run, helping the Bracken Girls with 18 points.
All three relay teams will run another day.
The 4×200 meter relay team finished first with a 1:55.57 run, almost three seconds better than their season best.
The foursome of Sierra Rayl, Kimmie Burbank, Hannah Moore, and Karagan Day pulled off the feat. All three Relays pulled in 44 points for BCS and all three events will be running next week.
Grady Achilles finished first in the 100 and 200 meter runs.

The Hawks could only scratch two runs across the plate as Canyon Lake will try to
Junior Michael Brady
get back on the winning track next week, after losing to Fredericksburg, 7-2 last Friday night at the Hawk diamond.
“We are trying to get across to the team that these games we are working to make a run,” Head Coach Trent Dunavant said. “We have players playing out of position and we are needing to eliminate our errors and improve our mental game.”
You have heard the story before, but with one Senior on the team, Canyon Lake keeps learning on the fly and the remembrance of the second year of competition.
“We got to know we can’t quit,” Junior Logan Felch said. “We love the game and we have to keep playing it right and going to reward us.”
“I notice more experience and in the long run it is going to help us,” as Felch commented on the youth of this team.
Canyon Lake Varsity would be a Junior Varsity on other teams and that is what has to be hard on fans and Coaches alike.

The top two finishers get another chance to reach Austin for State Track Meet in May.
Jordan Anderson was high point for the Meet with 48 points, missing a first place in the Long Jump by 0.25 of an inch.
The 48 points beat Bandera’s entire team and was only 21 points off of beating Wimberley.
Anderson will now be in the ‘running’ with five events in the Regional meet with a chance of finishing second or better in any event which would give him another week of competing in Austin.

Canyon Lake continued their week of comebacks by beating Wimberley, 3-2 last
McKenna Beseda
Friday night on Senior Night.
The Hawks beat another team that was over them in district play in a must win scenario and puts CL in a position to forge into the playoffs for the second year in a row.
District 26-3A has a crowded field atop the standings as four of the six teams find themselves with just one game of separation.
Canyon Lake drew first blood when McKenna Beseda reached base on an error and then completed the play when Wimberley’s short stop could not hold onto the ball as Beseda slid into second base.
After McKenna completed her tear on the base baths stealing third base, Senior Missy Romero scored Beseda on a sacrifice fly.
