Head Basketball Coach Mary Beth Gallagher

The Lady Hawks were able to get their first win of the season against Somerset on Monday with a 41-28 victory last Monday.

“Well today was a good combination of solid defense and good transition ball,” Head Basketball Coach Mary Beth Gallagher said. “We did a good job of controlling the boards and our height finally came in handy.”

CL finished with 37 rebounds with 13 on the offensive side of the court. Those offensive boards help in making that low shooting percentage will help in getting that turkey to go down better this Thanksgiving.

“We are starting to get back to our gritty defense,” Coach Gallagher admonished. “We do show signs of improvement on our basketball IQ.”

Senior Brandon Ward scored 8 points while dishing out 4 assists in Hawks win over Llano

Canyon Lake got there first win over Llano on Monday as the Hawks stung the Yellowjackets, 59-40.

“We came out early and got into a full-court man,” Head Basketball Coach Lucas Chapman stated. “That led to some turnovers and easy baskets….we really attacked the zone well early on and got some points in the paint.”

Thirteen of the 15 players scored in this game as the points were spread over the whole court much like the press wreaked havoc on Llano as CL held Llano to just 3 points to start the game.

Heath McDonough and Will Gray both finished with 9 points while Brandon Ward and Jacob Ramirez coming in with 8 a piece.

The ReSporter had an advertisement for the community a couple of weeks ago for a 5K Hawk Trot for the Canyon Lake Feeder schools.

Elizabeth Stearns was in charge of this event and The ReSporter had a chance to get news on how the extravaganza went.

The ReSporter: What is the history for this event?

Stearns: “We had our first 5K with just Startzville Elementary Nov 17, 2012 and then decided we needed to make it a community event. I am a runner and my kids beg to do the obstacle runs with me but most have an age limit. Because of that I wanted to make this an obstacle course that the whole family could do. I want our community to love being active together.”

The ReSporter: What is your purpose so you can get the word out for next year?

Braden Duke, Bradley Hight, Braden Hight, and Colton McDonald after win over Bandera JV, 46-0

Canyon Lake’s Junior Varsity football team was another success story as this team also won their district race as their were several high marks in accomplishing this goal.

Number one, is having a team that was comprised of mostly sophomore students.

What is significant about this tidbit?

This year, the Hawk Varsity, had the most sophomores playing varsity than CL’s first official year of putting on the pads.

So with a number of players already in an upgraded uniform, you can see that winning district would compliment the number of players still not able to make the jump to that next level.

Thank about how a group of players that not more than 2 years ago were playing in Mountain Valley as 8th graders that has now lost practically that whole ‘A’ team that ran through that successful campaign.

          Go Hawks

Canyon Lake is still in their infancy as Fredericksburg won each quarter in this win, 67-44.

“We did some good stuff,” Head Coach Lucas Chapman stated. “We could not finish shots or our free throws…but I liked our energy and effort and we were much more engaged in this game.”

To accent, Coach Chapman’s comments, the Hawks could not finish on the offensive side shooting 32% from the floor while leaving a possible 17 points at the charity stripe.

You can not expect perfection from the free throw line, but making 60-70% would have brought a whole new dynamic to this game in the second half.

The Billies buried Canyon Lake from they’re free throw stripe making 79% of those shots for 15 points in the second half.

Canyon Lake’s Varsity started their first home game shooting 22 % in the first half and then collapsed in the 4th quarter losing to the Lampasas Badgers, 52-40.

“It is early and there is a long way to go and we are still missing 3 major pieces,” Head Coach Luke Chapman surmised. “They made just one shot from outside and it was just their post play that killed us.”

Even after starting the game shooting blanks, the Hawks only found themselves down 2 points going into their halftime talk.

The Hawks took their first lead with :50 seconds to go in the third quarter and even increased that lead to 3 points to start the final stanza after a 3pt shot from Charlie McIntosh.

                Bracken Warriors Breaking Through before Game with Crusaders

Bracken Warriors could not stay up with the Coleman Train in their opening round loss to Tyler Street losing, 92-61.

“As young man we grew tremendously,” Head Coach Hosea Stredic said. “We learned a lot in dealing with adversity and how to deal with it when things did not go our way….but we kept pushing and they (the team) had a heart of gold.”

The Warriors could not stop the locomotive Jordaan Coleman on this day, as this young man totaled, 469 yards on his touchdown runs as the Crusaders hopped on their train for the next round of playoff games next week.

Bracken was in the game up until when they could not capitalize on a short drive after a Presley Day interceptions setting the Warriors up on the Crusaders 29 yard line.

The drive stalled on Tyler Street’s 5 yard line and then the Coleman train took off from the station and left Bracken holding the bags after his 75 yard score and 14 point lead in the first quarter.

BCS would scratch and claw back into the game later in the second quarter as they scored to end that stanza to draw within 8 points, 26-34.

The Crusaders did not take long in getting their 2 score lead back with a 45 run on the first play and BCS could not keep up as Tyler Street would score for 7 straight possessions while throwing an interception return for a touchdown.
