Let’s Go Hawks!
CL’s Boys have fallen off the table this past week after suffering two weeks and now find themselves holding on for a playoff spot. It is a pretty good chance that the other 3 district teams not named Davenport/Wimberley will absorb a loss when finishing their schedule through February 11th.
Hawk Soccer teams will start their district slate this week when both teams play Fredericksburg. The Boys start on the road where the Ladies will welcome the Billies to The Lake.
The Boy’s Soccer (5-7 record) have improved already with 5 wins which is 4 more than amassed all of last season. Offense has been in abundance with already scoring 17 more goals than the total 15 goals reached last year. Hopefully this could be a precursor for better things this season.
Softball has a full week of scrimmages while Baseball started their scrimmage season on Saturday with a round-robin affair with Flour Bluff and Calallen.
This week Hawk Baseball will play two home scrimmages against Harlandale on Monday with first pitch at 7:00pm and then a Noon first pitch playing Marble Falls.

Lady Hawks Soccer readies for start of district. (photo on file)
Canyon Lake Lady Hawk’s Soccer team has the longest playoff streak starting back in the 2013 season with aspirations of adding another year to that lofty goal.
This year’s team has one non-district left when they face Canyon on Tuesday and then will face off against another tough district even without Boerne who will be playing 5A this year.
An impressive 6-3-1 record scoring 27 goals while allowing 8 going into tomorrow’s battle.
Canyon’s loss to Davenport will allow CLHS see how they might stack up when they play the Wolves. The Lake’s district will once again have a tough group of teams.
The ReSporter was able to catch up with Head Coach Kara Stracener.
The ReSporter: Once again you have a pretty strong district, how do you feel the non-district games have helped in preparing the team for district?
Coach Stracener: “We have faced a variety of opponents leading up to district play. 4A-6A teams. Hopefully we have been put in enough difficult or different situations to help prepare us for what district will look and feel like.”
Let’s Go Lake!
The ReSporter: What have you seen from this year’s team that gives you confidence that your streak of playoff games will come to fruition?
Coach Stracener: “The girls look strong and are continuing to grow each day. If we continue to grow in our areas of weakness and play with confidence we will be on track to keep the playoff streak alive…”
The ReSporter: With the cold weather does that delay the progress you would like to have for this part of the season?
Coach Stracener: “The cold weather does not delay our progress, it just makes us tougher.”
The ReSporter: What type of goals do you want to accomplish besides the obvious make the playoffs?
Coach Stracener: “In the past 4 years we have made it to the 3rd round of playoffs 3 times. The girls are determined to go past round 3, possibly see a regional final game or even state tournament appearance.”
Now Coach Stracener will get to work for improvement with this year’s edition of CL’s Lady Soccer Team! Let’s Go Lake!

==================================
Way to Stay in Shape Hawks!
Don’t look now but last Friday’s games was a polar opposite situation that threw this upcoming 2nd round of games into a ‘what will or could happen on this night’ thoughts.
There was 3 upsets when games that had the home team taking advantage of the scoreboard which will put pressure on some teams while giving new hope to others.
First: The Lake was upset by Bandera resulting in their first victory in district.
Ramifications: Canyon Lake is now in a fight needing wins to secure a spot with little room for set-backs.
Bandera, on the other hand, has been put back on life-support for their (19-9) squad and only one game behind Navarro for a chance of making some noise.
Wimberley was victorious against Davenport and now finds themselves tied at the top owning a tie-breaker win over the Wolves. These two teams will be fighting for those top 2 post-season spots.
Go Hawks!
Navarro won their second game in a row which put Freddie in a need to win scenario for a chance of getting a date for the end of season dance card.
The Lake will have an important contest with the Texans at the Hawk Nest on Tuesday and then will be on the road Friday to play against a Panther team that has a renewed hope for this season presently on a two-game win streak.
Simply put….this Bandera loss, with those two other upsets, shows more schools being able to put together enough wins for making a play-off run.
The Lake does have 4 of their 5 next contests at the Hawk Nest with hope that this crew of Hawks can rebound with more conquests.
A loss by one point on a night that CLake went to the line for 15 shots and coming away making 6 of those attempts. Simple math for that
major reason for this loss.
An important week that can help secure or put this team in limbo as the season comes down to these last 3 weeks.

===============================
Dalton Stromquist is going up Strom in pre-game warm-ups!
Canyon Lake was able to hold off a desperate Fredericksburg team who needed a win that would help for a chance to be invited for this year’s playoffs.
Now, looking at the standings above, there are 3 schools that find themselves 2 games behind a 3rd place spot and grouped with 2 other teams fighting for that 4th place playoff spot.
The Lake has been a fast starting team for most of this season and this night was no exception after securing a 16 point lead (38-22) with just 32 seconds before the final quarter.
This Billie team was ice cold during those two middle quarters while only mustering 10 points but this story was far from over as Freddie almost reached their 3 quarter game scoring (24 points) in that final quarter when they reached 23 points.
CLake was steady while never losing the lead but seeing this desperate school get within one point, 46-45 with 31 seconds remaining.
That was when this contest became a charity stripe game and those final two makes by Jacob Holland (who finished as high scorer 16 points) being enough for another hard fought win, 50-47.
Carter Williams finished with a double-double scoring 13 points with 10 rebounds it was his 7th double-double this season.
“Kids are starting to find their groove and hopefully we’re starting to peak at the right time,” Head Basketball Coach Monte Cole stated. “Just need to find a little more consistency and put four quarters together every game.”
Way to Go Hawks!!
The Hawks have Bandera as their last district opponent yet to be played before that final round of games finalizes who can actually punch their dance card for a post-season.
Post-Season is not a phrase that has been used much for CL’s previous 16 seasons. In fact, The Hawks have made the playoffs 3 times with each time playing one game. CL’s Boys Basketball was the last Hawk sport to make the playoffs.
A win on Friday would cement CL for this year by finishing their first round with one loss and a 4-1 record.
An undefeated Davenport will play an important game Friday at Wimberley. If the Texans win then a 3-way tie for first place and with a loss Wimbo would be placed 3rd spot in district play.
Go Hawks!
Reese Pipkin has been a valuable roll play for CLHS this season and has been the first player off the bench. On what he looks for when he waits to be called on, “I like to watch the offense and what I might expect when I enter the contest,” Pipkin said with resolve.
“Pipkin is very coachable,” Coach Cole interjected. “I let the players know what Fredericksburg likes to do coming out of our time-out and that was when Pipkin made a steal at the end of this game.
A player that is not a shoot first player but a guard that distributes the ball while filling out those little things in the stat sheet that keeps a team to stay in sync.
“The game is more intense and it matters more,” Pipkin said when asked the difference between non-district and district play. “We just need to keep our energy and not do anything different.”
Dalton Stromquist has morphed into a key Hawk in the middle of the paint as many times a game will be played off his high post when getting CL’s offense in attack mode.
Hit Man says way to get rid of those Pests Hawks!
On when this change came about during the end of December play, “I started to find open shots while I was calling for the ball,” Stromquist remembered. “I have gotten better and I am trying to go up every time and I just have more confidence.”
Stromquist talked bout how his needs changed with a mid-season injury to Williams, “I was the only person to get rebounds and I just stepped up to get them (rebounds) to help the team.”
On what the Hawk Nation can expect with Friday’s contest against Bandera, “I’m ready to get another win!”
Coach Cole also chimed in on how district play has had these Hawks improving their season stats when that has not been the case for a long time (ever), “We have a lot of Seniors and they know that every possession matters and everything this season has led up to this point. Our shot quality has been better and by playing 5A and 6A schools that has helped when we got into district play. I don’t care what our pre-district record is because what matters will be those earlier games and how they prepared us for district.”
Canyon Lake’s first round of district games has been on the road and now that will change the next go round but this has been a WOW of first games with two road wins against the Billies and Texans which are CL’s first time to win those two games on the road in The Lake’s history.
This Friday against Bandera will be a big hurdle since these Bulldogs need a win big time to salvage their season and CL can’t take this contest lackadaisical or they will have a long bus ride home with a missed opportunity.
The win over Fredericksburg would have been a loss last season, as keeping a lead, was the Hawk’s kryptonite then.
It’s time to plant another road flag as this next round will have Canyon Lake with 4 of their last 5 games at the Hawk Nest.
Let’s GO HAWKS!

Let’s Go Hawks!
Girls Basketball starts their third week of district play at Navarro (Tuesday) and Davenport (Friday) at the Hawk Nest. It is another tough district as all these schools have winning records.
The Hawks did get their first win at Bandera last Tuesday when Reece Coburn led the Hawks scoring 17 points and this win was highlighted with CL’s defense holding the Bulldogs to one point in the 3rd quarter which allowed enough separation to coast with an 11 point victory.
The Lake’s Boys started district on the road last Friday with their first win ever at Wimberley, 63-56. (Article is Posted on this site)
The Boys will welcome Navarro on Tuesday and then will travel to district favorite Davenport on Friday.
Go Hawks!
Soccer has been full tilt with their schedule as the Ladies sport a 4-2-1 record that has seen a schedule peppered with (2) 6A, (1) 5A, and (4) 4A schools. The combined record of the teams is a haughty, 25-14-4 with those two losses coming at the hands of a 6A and an undefeated 4A schools.
CLake Ladies will be in action this Friday at the Hawk nest against La Vernia.
The Lake’s Boy’s Soccer will play Thursday in a tournament against Hondo, JFK-Friday, and Leander Glenn on Saturday.
Let’s GO LAKE!!
Hawks come out of time-out for battle as district starts with a win over Wimberley, 63-56!
Canyon Lake’s ebb and flow contest with Wimberley turned out an overflow of good vibes after outscoring the Texans, 11-4 in an overtime win to open district play.

Anthony Hockman was Chairman of the Board after securing 15 & scoring 9 pts is last Hawk JV contest. Go Hawks!
Canyon Lake’s Boys Junior Varsity has shown that they will not be a slouch on the hard-wood this year as they take a winning record into their Christmas break.
A game against South San Antonio did not come out on the good side after a slow start during the opening tip as the Hawks found themselves looking at an 11 point deficit while scoring 3 points against a tough man-to-man defense.
The Lake was, however, able to keep within striking distance for the rest of this battle with a wake-up 17 point 2nd Quarter and trailing by 5 points going into halftime.
CLHS just could not get that spark after falling behind 11 points in that 3rd frame that ended with a 12 point climb starting the final period, 43-31.
CLJV would fight back to another 5 point separation to South San, 49-44 with still over 3 minutes remaining.
Gavin Cano was the main spark in this comeback extravaganza finding the net from the beyond the arc three times while also dishing out 4 assists for a chance to pull this contest out.
Another Hawk, Anthony Hockman brought his windex to the backboard after reaching 15 rebounds in the contest while being Johnny on the Spot for those Cano assists keeping this Home Team still in the hunt.
Way to Go Lake!!
CLJV would find themselves down 13 points, 49-36 with 6 minutes remaining but Eli Cole was good on one of three 3 pointers that started a last gasp run and brought CL back into this game.
Ben Parma was able to match Cano with 5 assists and led the team garnering 4 steals during this final mad scramble.
Yes, a loss but this Hawk Junior Varsity team shows the Hawk Nation that the pipeline has started to fill with several of these players being next in line after a large senior contingent on CL’s Varsity finish their eligibility.
A team with height (Harlow Wisdom-Eli Cole-Anthony Hockman) and ball handlers which was evident after finishing with 17 assists coming from 8 different players.
Still room for improvement on the charity stripe and on the floor after amassing 25 turnovers which were two main reasons for this loss.
A Freshman team that finished with just 6 wins last season has shown great strides along with two juniors for what could be a fun ride when district comes calling in January.
