           Way to Plug those Leaks Lake!

Canyon Lake’s Defense was a Rock of Gibraltar coming out of halftime and proceeded to allow Navarro one first down and 14 yards which was enough for CL’s Offense to get two scores and a, 21-13 win.

Two Panther completions for 9 yards added by a suffocating Hawk front seven who applied pressure that entire second half.

Navarro possessed the ball 5 times during those last two quarters and the results were stunning on the negative side for the visitors.

 

Panther’s Second Half:
Possession 1: Gained  1 yard  on 2 plays and lost fumble.
Possession 2: Gained 19 yards on 9 plays and punt.
Possession 3: Lost   17 yards on 3 plays and punt.
Possession 4: Gained  9 yards on 3 plays and punt.
Possession 5: Gained  2 yards on 4 plays and interception.

That would be the ball game with a dominating defense while CL’s Offense came out of their shell after a 141 first half yards followed with 250 second half yards.

Two main offensive weapons had Gram Simpson reached over 100 yards finishing with 117 while Peyton King was targeted 7 times gaining 117 yards which would have been a year’s total during those slot-t campaigns.

QB Jace Wheeler finished with 221 yards passing and now possesses the best win/loss percentage for any Hawk quarterback and 3rd all-time in passing yardage.

                    Let’s Go Hawks!!

This game had a rough start when Navarro traveled 75 yards to score taking 4 minutes. The Panther’s lead lasted 16 seconds after Peyton King returned the kick-off 40 yards resulting  a short field and one play 39 yard strike to Kobe Halverson.

Coach Darrell Royal once said that two bad things can happen on a pass play. With an obvious interception or a fumble if pass is caught.

The Panthers did the fumble ‘bad thing’ on their next drive but CL would not take advantage reaching the 22 yard line before running out of downs.

Next, Navarro with a 14 play drive but a Hawk defensive stop on the 15 yard line kept this battle  tied.

Navarro’s next drive went 11 plays covering 75 yards giving these Panthers a, 13-7 lead that had Isiah Eureste blocked extra point. A key play.

                          Way to GO LAKE!

The Lake would come out of intermission and ‘repeat’ dominated the last two quarters scoring twice when Wheeler found King on a 42 yard beautiful pass and catch on this one play drive and Hawk, 14-13 lead at the end of that 3rd stanza.

A clinching score starting the 4th quarter was accomplished on a drive that took more than one play when CLake drove 70 yards on 16 plays topped off when Chris Brown used a bruising run for 7 yards and Hawk, 21-13 lead and final score.

Canyon Lake will be back in action when they travel to San Antonio to take on Veterans Memorial at D. W. Rutledge Stadium with kick-off 7:00pm.

A Rock of Gibraltar second half with a chance to improve on that performance against a 5A opponent Veterans Memorial.

Way to GO LAKE!

JV Hawks Went 6-Man Football Mode in, 48-20 Win over Navarro

Friday, September 12th, 2025

Panther’s did not have a chance with CLJV’s Defense! Hawks won, 48-20! Go Lake!

 

Canyon Lake’s Junior Varsity started slow but finished in a 6-Man football mode in their 48-20 spanking of Navarro’s Panthers.

The Lake’s defense was spot on after a special team fumble recovery and a Carson Walker interception to start this affair.

Then forcing two 3 plays and punt series that had your Hawks up, 14-0 before giving up a score with just under 4 minutes remaining in the first half.

CLHS would respond to the Panther’s score with a 58 yard drive when John Fitzharris received a team sneak from 2 yards out resulting in a Hawk, 20-7 first half lead.

It would last two quarters that started a six-man contest. (For those unfamiliar with 6-man football it will many times take less than 4 plays for a touchdown)

Panthers started the 2nd stanza with a one play 75 yard run by a ‘Jack Rabbit’ or fast Panther down the home sideline taking less than 10 seconds to accomplish.

The Lake found out that their first half of dominance would be challenged.

                        GO HAWKS!!

That CL response would be in rapid fire using just 9  plays during those last two quarters and scoring 4 times that responded with a Lake, 48-14 lead until a no-time on the clock score by Navarro for a final score, 48-20.

This won’t take long if you catch The ReSporter’s 6-man scenario.

After the opening 2nd half score the Lake:

Took 3 plays to travel 61 yards when Dario Faz caught an over his shoulder pass from QB Damon Garcia for 59 yds and score.

N Panthers then went 4 plays and punt.

Hawks? Two plays for 61 yards when Oliver Carey-Spoon found his offensive line wedging a hole and squirting for 55 yards and score. Carey-Spoon finished with 106 ground yardage on 9 carries.

N Panthers 3 plays and punt.

Hawks? 3 plays that had a *Thomas Inmon 31 yard finger tip catch followed with a catch and run that went 23 yards for Peyton Vann.

*Inmon finished with 157 receiving Yards.

N Panthers 3 plays and punt.

The Hawks? A one play 41 yard run for Isaac Blinkley when he bounced out of the middle of the line and down the visitor side of the field and score.

QB Garcia started this contest with 6 incompletions before finding Inmon for 20 yard touchdown strike and CL’s first score of the game left in that opening frame. He was 2 for 9 going 26 yards before catching red hot fire with 11 straight completions and 247 yards.

Pretty impressive well oiled machine for The Lake!

It had been two weeks since that first game loss to Wimberley and getting that first win would be a defensive stalwart effort followed by a Six-Man football contest.

If you do this same type of game next week then start in that first quarter and the game would be over with a 45 point  or more lead going into halftime.

The Lake’s JV first home game will be next Thursday in a 5:30pm kick-off.

Way to Go Lake!

Football had a rebound week sweeping Crockett Cougars. Freshman beat Crockett’s Junior Varsity while Lake’s JV had the week off due to Cougars not having enough players to field another team.

CL’s offense had a coming out party passing for 273 yards with 4 touchdowns through the air. Hawk’s defense gave up one TD but no rest of this sport with a tough Navarro team coming to the Hawk Nest.

These Panthers come into this battle with the same record as The Lake and one encouraging stat coming from this last week was seeing the Hawk passing game starting to gel against a team that gave up a ton of passing yards in their loss.

Navarro is switching from the slot-t this year which, with most slot-t teams, who have problems in pass defense due to not practicing against a passing team week in and week out.

A chance to see more improvement as Canyon Lake will work on closing their 2-4 all-time record against Navarro.

Let’s Go Hawks and Win the Week!

The Lake was Rising in Hawk’s Win over Crockett, 49-7

Saturday, September 6th, 2025

The # 2 Chris Brown Club took a whole section while Chris performed for his entourage! Way to GO Chris & LAKE!

 

A bend but don’t break Hawk Defense helped the Lake’s Offense by keeping Austin Crockett at bay until the Home team’s arsenal would take over in this, 49-7 win.

Four of the six Cougar drives reached the Hawk’s side of the field in this game but CL’s defense was able to get key plays with a Ben Parma interception and missed field goal during those opening 2 quarters which was enough to shut out Crockett in that first half for enough time before Lake opened the Offensive Curtain.

The Hawk’s first offensive drive had some misfires after a 43 yard run by Gram Simpson the offense misfired with 4 incomplete passes on that set of downs and CL reaching the Cougars 14 yard line.

Those 4 missed throws would be the last for QB Jace Wheeler on this night by finishing with 11 straight complete passes and 4 touchdowns.

Wheeler spread his wealth around to five different Hawks for 273 yards of real estate.

One pass covered 75 yards when Chris Brown caught a swing pass and burst through a quick opening before racing to the end zone.

Another noteworthy catch was a touchdown throw to Hayes (stretch) Holladay in the back of the end zone where he imitated Mr. Fantastic Four character to pull that ball in for one of those 4 touchdowns through the airwaves.

Gavyn Baldera finished the night on his 18 yard run through a maze of Cougars capping off this win.

Canyon Lake would score on their last six drives for this victory.

A lot of check-offs in this battle and Coaches certainly will work on some kinks but as a whole The Lake was rising with still enough room before the water reaches the spill way.

Canyon Lake will have another home game next Friday when the Navarro Panthers come to the Hawk Nest and a chance to find out which Fantastic Four power will be present this time.

Way to GO LAKE!

The Freshman Hawks evened their record by leaving no doubt coming out of the chute ready to dominate in this win over the Crockett Cougars, 38-7.

Head Freshman Coach Lee Self, “I was super proud of the kids…the boys came out and played hard….we had a great first half and 2nd half we slated off a little bit and we have to work on that and play all four quarters and keeping that focus.”

“We have a lot to fix tomorrow and Monday but on top of that the positives and excited for the guys to get a win,” Coach Self continued. “We have improved from 7th grade to 8th and how much they have improved from 8th grade to 9th and how much they will continue to improve.”

This game started when CL’s defense pushed these Cougars offense back 11 yards in those first 3 plays capped off with a sack by Derek Dunlap.

Then on offense. The Lake, took 5 plays to drive 38 yards and scored off a QB Jake Welkey pass to Caleb Cross for 15 yards.

The Lake’s defense would continue their iron wall with another offensive barrage going 47 yards taking 9 plays on this drive that had running back Colin Armstrong with an 11 yard run that converted a 3rd & 10 situation.

Dunlap had his first score from a yard out which this TD was capped with a Dunlap 2 point extra point run.

CL’s Freshman kept the pressure going when Armstrong would take the rock 48 yards that converted a 3rd and 14 yards needed that was bounced out down the sideline for a score and Hawk lead, 22-0.

Armstrong finished this game rushing for 118 yards on 11 carries with that long of 48 yards.

On the Cougar’s next two drives the turnover bug struck with and a lost fumble and then an interception for Wyatt Galvan and a 25 yard return to the Crockett 30 yard line.

One play later it was Dunlap who would gallop 19 yards through a huge hole left by the offensive line and final score before half, 30-0.

The Lake would score their last time on a drive that consisted of 4 explosive plays sandwiched with a face mask penalty.

It was receiver Cross who produced a catch and run from QB Welkey for 28 yards score leaving 29 seconds in the 3rd stanza.

These Cougars did have a damaging play when #11 (who had speed out the wazoo) make the sideline for his 69 yard touchdown run. This was a one play touchdown and after that firework display the game finished with a whimper.

Improving would be the key word on this night and season as this Freshman group continues to see positive results and will see if that can continue next week when they go on the road again in Navarro.

Congrats and Way to GO LAKE!

Gold Volleyball Start Season, 3-1 After Sweep of Akins Eagles

Wednesday, September 3rd, 2025

Libero Viv Schapp & Haley Mechler are ready to receive and dish out pain to Akins. Go Lake!

 

                     Let’s GO HAWKS!

Hawk Volleyball Sub-Varsity has shown a lot of athletes that have improved with another night of a sweep over on this night Akins school.

CL’s Gold team finished ahead of Akins JV, 25-15 & 25-12 as they run their record to 3-1 this season.

On what was the goal going into this game, Gold Coach Kara Barnes opined, “Our goal going into the game against Akins was to control what we can control and the court. We did a good job serving tough, keeping our energy high, and executing on our offense.”

A passing grade for this Gold team that amassed 7 aces and an eventual enough momentum for this sweep.

In that first set, The Lake, did not start strong as the Eagles were able to secure a 4 point start leading to a 5-3 lead.

That lead was helped with 11 unforced errors which by doing the math gave Akins 73% of their points in this set.

The Lake got things going when Khloe Petty started her serve and quickly gave CL a lead they would not lose with an ace and kill by Alleigh Jones.

Libero Liv Schapp quarterbacked the team to the end especially after CL’s slow start, “Liv has been an excellent leader on the court,” Coach Barnes said. “She’s consistently communicating with her teammates and working hard to keep plays alive.”

It was on Haley Mechler’s serves that ended this first set when she delivered two aces and a capping kill by Cameron Parker.

In the 2nd set The Gold team played a much cleaner set with only 3 unforced errors which help keep the pressure on Akins and eventual 13 point loss, 25-12.

Cameron Parker started this set serving a 4 point rally that had Mechler with 3 kills that put this set away early.

“Haley (Mechler) has also been a vital part of our offense,” Coach heaped praise. “Her vertical ability allows her to finish points effectively, especially during extended rallies.”

Addison Carrara came off the bench to serve an 8 point rally which would give your Hawks all the separation needed.

Mechler had two more kills during this episode along with a Leighton Hill kill.

Game-Set-Match with a their next battle being at San Antonio Cole this Friday.

Way to GO GOLD!

CL Hawks Take Care of Business in a, 3-0 Win Over Akins

Wednesday, September 3rd, 2025

Preslie Owens & Kylee Goff is first line of defense in Hawk’s win over Akins.

                 Way to Go Hawks!!

 

The Lake continued their dominance in home games thus far after upending Austin Akins, 3-0 on Tuesday night at the Hawk Nest.

Head Coach Daniella Villarreal was able to work in several players as this season draws closer to a district slate.

CLHS was able to see 8 different players getting into the Kill column with Preslie Owens leading the way with 10 for this win.

Owens has been showing off with each additional game as she reached 3rd on this season’s list which gives CLake a slew of players that can attack the net for points.

                         Let’s Go Lake!

Te’a Gonzales was another player who was moved up from Junior Varsity full time now as this lefty gives the Lake more options offensively.

Garnering 14 aces did hurt in this night’s performance as this has been another good trait as this season has matured.

A tough district that Canyon Lake has been left out these past few years for a playoff spot will certainly give this Senior class a goal to reach when that part of the schedule gets going in 3 weeks.

 

District Standongs
Davenport      22    3   .880
Wimberley      25    5   .833
Canyon Lake    13   10   .565
Bandera        13   15   .464
Fredericksburg  9   12   .423
Long Creek      6   15   .286

The Hawks will be in action this Friday in Randolph that will have the Varsity’s first serve at 5pm followed by the Sub-Varsity.

Who were also on fire on this night in sweeping all three contests.

Way to GO LAKE!
