Infielder Peyton Sipila

The Hawks finally put the Bandera Bulldogs away in a much needed sweep in district play, 7-1 on Friday night.

With each team scoring a run in the first inning, Canyon Lake had a nail driving six run rally in that sixth inning giving the Hawks a lead that would guarantee a sweep of Bandera.

Another good pitching performance from Ryan Hutcheson by allowing just one run on one hit to even his record to 3-3 for the season.

Senior Kyler Huff finished the game off closing out that 7th inning and closing the door and not allowing the Dogs to go outside for anymore play time.

Canyon Lake had bats were alive in this contest finishing with 12 hits and the top four batters in the batting order tied with two a piece.

Bandera is on the bottom of District 27-3A without a win and this game was a must for CL in order to get back into the district race.

A good sign in raising the season batting percentage by 7 points without any strikeouts.

Pitcher Cody Powell

Canyon Lake only needs one more win to sweep the series with Bandera.

This series was a must win for Canyon Lake as a loss would put the Hawks in a hole since Bandera is at the bottom of District 27-3A.

This game was won with the pitching of Cody Powell who recovered after a tough start in his last outing.

Seven strikeouts and giving up just one three hits was just what the doctored ordered as CL was also held to just three hits in this win.

Six errors by the Bulldogs certainly helped at Canyon Lake had six batters reach base by an error on Bandera giving an extra six outs for CL which all but sealed the deal.

A big win for Canyon Lake over Navarro helps give a focus to the Hawks needed finish this season strong.

Pitcher Alexis Robinson struck out 14 Panthers in this game and the Hawks will certainly trade a pitching game like this versus a great game from the plate.

The Hawks struck for two runs in that first inning and that would be all they would need as Robinson certainly had command of the strike zone.

Senior McKenna Beseda helped with a double and scored in that first inning along with Kelsey Ahrens for what would prove the be the winning run.

What this game said loud and clear was that this Hawk team does not have to be on fire from the offensive side of a game in order to get a win.

The Panthers Herzog was one of the players that was a thorn in the side of Canyon Lake’s road to a victory on this rain delayed game.

So with three batters that were silenced in this game in Robinson, Brianna Young, and Lilimae Daily this victory gives a important message that the Hawks don’t have to be on fire from every player to pull off a win.

District 27-3A has now been updated after last week’s track meet results.

Doug Hubnik taking Baton from Daniel Camarillo

The ReSporter had to wait a little longer since some athletes were competing at the Texas Relays.

One such student was Marisa Ellis competing in the Triple Jump. Ellis still had a better jump at the Hawk Relays and presently still has first place for district.

These events are the most comprehensive as all meets were recorded giving The ReSporter a chance to update to a closer idea of how the District 27-3A Track Meet might end up if held this week.

Most of the Schools has some minor meets this week as Canyon Lake will be going back to Blanco for a Tri-Meet this Thursday.

Canyon Lake will be hosting district again this season and that will be starting off a week from Wednesday.

If you study these times and want to have a good idea of how to see what might happen in a meet, then their are a couple of items you might want to look for as The ReSporter has been compiling these type news for three years.

**That date after the team is important as it indicates when that result was achieved. So, if you see that a long jumper had their best jump in February then it could mean that student might have peaked already, injuries, sickness, and you might see their name in other events and that was one that did not take priority.

So results that are more recent will tend to carry more wait.

**Many of these students have been entered into several events over the past few weeks as Coaches are searching for where their team might get more points for meets.

Canyon Lake lowered their 1600 Meter Relay by nine seconds at the Hawk Relays last week

Canyon Lake New and Improved 4x400 Meter Relay Team (Brookelynn Helmke, Hannah Graves, Amber Ramsey, and Mariah Ellis)

and with that time now have the best results in District 27-3A.

Not only the best time this year among fellow District Schools, but also their time of 4:10.53 was a new standard for future CL 1600 Relay teams.

The good news is that the Hawks have at least two more weeks to see how low they can go to set an all time standard.

Mariah Ellis, Hannah Graves, Brookelynn Helmke, and Amber Ramsey were in control of this relay from the beginning to end.

This is a good nucleus of students which has a lot of potential as this season now gets into a much more serious stage.

Another one of many personal bests happened at the Hawk Relays and there might be some disturbing

Senior Triple Jumper Branson Belcher

Senior Branson Belcher had a Canyon Lake Record Triple Jump at last Thursdays Meet.

Belcher soared over the 40 foot mark in the Triple Jump event and replaced Todd Pippin on that leader board.

Below was the Canyon Lake best Triple Jump finishes.

 Name                 Distance      Year     Meet       When       Grade
 Todd Pippin          38'9.25       2011     Blanco     March 1    Graduated
 Luke Curry           38'6          2012     Tiger      March 29   Junior
 Branson Belcher      38'4          2012     District   April 11   Senior

Looking at the numbers you can see that Belcher passed his best by over 2 feet and now Pippin has to come back to school to have another chance to have his name on the board. Belcher’s jump was 40’11 distance.

“Yesterday I was helping out at the Junior High Track Meet and I saw Pippin on the leader board and that was the only thing that motivated me,” Belcher said with bravado.

Canyon Lake had some surprises at the Hawk Relays last week and one of the

1600 Meter Record Holder: Sophomore Mike Russell

Russell ran on the Cross Country Team and has been a long distance runner for a while.

However, his best time was 5:19.00 two weeks ago in Wimberley which for a Sophomore is still a very good outing.

Enter a week at the beach and all of a sudden his time improves 18 seconds and with this run breaks the Canyon Lake record of 5:01.70 by 0.22 seconds.

Senior Chris Neiland ran that event last season in Dripping Springs almost exactly one year ago.

“I never thought I would break a record,” Russell said while recuperating after this grueling run. “It wasn’t even in my mind, but after I finished I knew that I might be close.”

Russell surprised several people familiar with who had done what in the mile run and this race was not looking like it would or could result in such a good finish.

The Canyon Lake Lady Hawks continue to impress this Track Season as they finished 5th with

Trena Lorett Jumping and Scoring for CL

their Varsity while the Junior Varsity finished in 3rd only behind Canyon and Hays.

First off the Hawks had Marisa Ellis match her high jump best, but she also had her best Triple Jump of the season going over that 37 foot barrier.

Canyon Lake might change their name to Canyon (we can Triple Jump over the) Lake High School soon.

Between the Varsity and JV teams Canyon Lake totaled 42 points in that one event. Another way to calculate this Feat is in traveling 203.11 Feet or over 2/3 of a football field.

Here are their Finish from Top to Bottom:
Marisa Ellis           37'3.75
Mariah Ellis           33'11.5
Trena Lorett           33'3.5
Bailey Drum            32'5
Halley McKnight        31'11

Hawks Gold Team Ready themselves for District 27-3A play

Canyon Lake Golf Team finished 6th Place in the FHS Boys Invitational with a field of 16 teams.
