Heritage at the Blanco Holiday Hoopfest Tournament.

Skyler Tschoepe and Andrew Riali were the recipients as the rest of the Hawks followed suit and finished off their counterparts.

Tschoepe finished the day with 28 points and 18 rebounds for the two games and seems to be getting his basketball legs as this season matures into district play.

“I worked hard in practice,” Tschoepe said. “We worked on fast break drills but football and basketball is night and day difference on the type of shape you need to be in.”

Tschoepe was strong around the rim and scored most of his points inside the paint.

“I need to be strong with the ball underneath,” Tschoepe closed. “We need to play and get better on how we played today and play fast.”

Andrew Riali finished his two game stint with double/doubles with points and rebounds.

Riali’s two game totals were impressive with 21 points and 20 rebounds.

Mountain Valley Middle School 8th Grade is just one year away from walking down Canyon Lake High

Eric Hill, Hank Jordan, and Lee Stafford getting together after a win over Bandera

School halls and below, The ReSporter, has compiled the stats on a limited number of games this that were played at home.

The total stats will have both 8th Grade team’s combined numbers.

MVMS doubled their yardage over the competition and by looking at those players you will see that having running backs for next season will not be a problem.

Rushing was dominant as the Hawks almost tripled the yardage of their opponent.

Just like the 7th Grade, MVMS 8th grade team won the offensive battle, but  it was their defense that might be even more impressive as many of these same players below doubled on the defensive side of the ball.

The ReSporter: What are you needing from those players to do in order to give your team a chance to compete?

Coach Gallagher: “We have to do the little things like set good screens, make smart passes and finish shots to win in district. We know we will have to beat Wimberley and Bandera both times and we would love to take a win from one of the other three.”

Mountain Valley Seventh Grade had a Grade A football season and The ReSporter would like to

Cade Dunavant and Landry Moore are happy after Win over Fredericksburg.

play a tribute to this group of players.

Canyon Lake will be well represented in the next few years as MVMS will be feeding two teams the 7th and 8th Grades into high school and that will certainly give the Hawks a chance to improve as these teams finish their eligibility at Mountain Valley.

Mountain Valley doubled yardage gained against their opponents and looking at the players average yards per run gives you an idea of how dominant this team performed.

The stats below were compiled based on home games this season for both A and B squads.

Matt Magness holds CL record for most touchdowns receiving

The ReSporter was bored during the Christmas Break and studied all of the scores since competition started and recorded those students with longest touchdowns by receiving and rushing.

There are a few players that most fans will remember after seeing this list and will help you put those scores in perspective.

First item The ReSporter noted was how unique a player Doug Hubnik was for the Hawks.

Hubnik while playing for CL scored several ways.
Interception Return against Luling during the 2011.
Kick-off return against Luling during that same game.
Receiving several times during his two year offensive career.
Rushing while being a QB during the La Grange game in 2011.

FRESHMAN

Canyon Lake had a rough night losing close games with Lampasas as the Hawk Freshman team had a one point loss to the Badgers.

“We played hard and kept ourselves in the game,” Head Freshman Coach John Barthels said. “A late turnover with just a few seconds on the clock sealed the deal.”

The Hawks seem to have a disease that is creeping onto each squad this year as first quarter jitters are allowing opponents to seize a lead and CL having to come back to get back into the game.

Canyon Lake had to overcome a five point hill to start the fourth quarter and just could not climb another hill for a win.
