The Hawks Freshman were blown away literally as the winds from the North played havoc for both teams last Thursday night at Hawk Stadium.
Canyon Lake took advantage of the wind first as the Fredericksburg center sent the ball past the quarterback and what started with the ball on the 34 yard line the Hawks recovered the ball on the eight and ready for the short drive.
The play set the Billies back 26 yards. Two Hayden Dubois runs later CL had their 6-0 lead.
“We came ready to play we just had too many mistakes,” Head Coach Brian Owens said. “We weren’t handling the middle of the line and we had to make the most of it.”
“Give it up for the offensive line, but they were better to the bitter end,” Coach Owens continued. “This team is really special…they play together more than any freshman team I have had.”
The good news for the Billies, if you don’t pass much, then you might be able to minimize the wind by running the ball.

Head Coach Matt Monzingo
week’s article the same way. “I’m disappointed we did not take care of business.”
Canyon Lake now is in the position of needing help from other teams in order to have a chance for the playoffs.
“I don’t like my destiny in someone’s hands,” Coach Monzingo said. “We were not focused…we had a team meeting on Monday, and the kids thought it was going to be easy.”

Bracken starts facing teams that can put more meat on their plate. Marble

Head Coach Lloyd Fields
Falls Faith have proven to be a decent team the last two years.
Last year the Flames ended their campaign with a 9-2 record and are presently, 5-3 with two games remaining.
When asked how motivating the team is going, Coach Lloyd Fields said, “They don’t need us (coaches) to motivate, the team motivates themselves.”
Sounds like a team that is working on a 22 game winning streak.
Bracken has faced and beaten teams that have a 36-28 record for this season.

The Bracken Warriors Girls Cross Country team dominated the State meet

Cross Country Coach Jack Roettinger
held in Waco last weekend.
“We had a good pre State season,” Cross Country Coach Jack Roettinger said. “With meets in Hondo, Junction, Comfort, UTSA, and Hope gave us our stepping stones to State.”
“The girls matured through out and UTSA was the meet when they knew they could compete,” Coach Roettinger continued. “They finished fourth out of 13 teams.”
The Warriors finished with a 23 point lead with no Seniors on the squad.
Bracken looks like they might be able to pitch a permanent tent at the Waco course for the next several years.
“The girls have really good training and competitive practices,” Coach Roettinger strolled. “They are real dedicated and have a lot of perseverance.”

Blockers Bailey Beene and Wendy Johnson taking care of Business
The Area round of playoffs was a slow starting game for the Bracken Warriors as they had to come back to win the first game and then cruised to a three game sweep of Dalllas Lakehill Warriors at the Bracken gym on Tuesday night.
“Working out our nerves for the first playoff game…I don’t like the bye,” Head Coach Shaunna Teuton stated. “We did play some warm up games, but the playoffs are different and we needed to have one under our belt.”
BCS could not get any rallies as the team seemed to be playing in quick sand for much of the first game.
“We were just nervous on the first game,” Killer Amanda Morgan said. “We just played the first game as a warm up game and did not take it seriously.”
On the solution, Morgan reiterated, “We will warm up harder for the next game.”

Pre/Game | Comments Off on Pre/Game: Bracken Christian @ Marble Falls Faith
Bracken Christian made a big statement game on Friday night as they beat SA The Winston, 54-0 for the seventh ‘mercy’ game in a row this season at Warrior Stadium.
BCS held the leading rusher in the Nation to 64 yards on 15 carries. The Winston’s Wilkerson had over 400 yards rushing last week and only approached that number as he was walking back to his bus for the ride home.
“We thought we could slow him (RB Wilkerson) down,” Head Coach Lloyd Fields said defensively. “We shut him down instead.”
Defense wins Championships and the Warriors proved on this night that they might have a better defense than the Championship season last year.
The Warriors gave up 48 points in their first game of the season and now have given up 38 points in their last seven games total.

Canyon Lake Hawks go back to the drawing board as Boerne turns mistakes into touchdowns, as CL loses second consecutive game this season at Boerne stadium, 35-14.
What started as a nice looking game, suddenly changed in the second half to a Greyhound beating.
The Hawks started the game with another patented drive, as CL drove 80 yards on 11 plays and took the early lead, 7-0 after the Jake Robinson point after attempt.
The drive had a lot of Zach Henshaw, as the Senior running back accounted for 73 of the 80 yards for the first score. Henshaw had 53 yards rushing and 20 yards receiving on the drive.
Canyon Lake had two third down plays and both were within three yards for a first down or touchdown.

BOERNE, Texas –The Canyon Lake Freshmen Hawks took a cue from the New York Jets and used their own version of “pound and ground” to rough up the Boerne Greyhounds 26-7 Thursday night to even their season record at 4-4 and 3-1 in district play.
From the first kick and even walking off the bus the Hawks used a physical, suffocating defense and a powerful, efficient run game to win in Boerne for the second time this season.
“We knew we were going to beat them when we walked off the bus,” defensive lineman Dallas Sandau said. “But at the same time we knew they were going to come at us pretty hard because they wanted revenge, so we had to be ready to go.”
The Hawks were indeed ready to go and used their “pound” first on the defensive side of the ball to hold the Greyhounds to 60 total yards and three 1st downs in the first half.
