The Hawks won their first game ever against the Wimberley Texans last Friday afternoon at the Hawks Softball Diamond.
Pitcher Missy Romero pitched with confidence as she threw only 35 pitches in the middle innings allowing the opportunity to pitch stronger in the heat when the latter innings came calling.
What was the reason for the confidence? How about the simple number that tells about errors in a game? There were none!! (more…)
The baseball team this year has gone back in time…..remember two years ago, when the CL teams oldest players were juniors?
Well, this season the baseball team we have, has gone back two years for both the Varsity and JV. Yes, the varsity does have some seniors playing, but the bulk of the players are sophomores on the varsity team.
Now, you know the problem that faces the Junior Varsity team this season. On many teams the sophomores would be playing, but that group of guys now the word freshman outside their name instead. (more…)
The Hawks flew over the fence with a homerun ball off the bat of Logan Felch scoring Quinn Pike and sending the Wimberley Texans home for the long weekend.
Canyon Lake had fought from behind until the lead was reclaimed in the bottom of the sixth inning, when Daniel Camarillo laced his third hit of the evening knocking in the go ahead run (at the time) for a 3-2 lead.
“I have a good mind set of going up swinging,” sophomore Camarillo said. “This game gives us a good spirit so we can make this a habit.” (more…)

The Canyon Lake Hawks lost their first district game last Friday against the Bandera Bulldogs, 2-0.
When asked Head Coach John Gallagher the one word description of the game…..
“Heartbreaker”, he said.
The pitching dual was on, starting in the first inning as the Hawk’s Missy Romero and Amber Neal from Bandera set the stage. The two pitchers combined for 25 strikeouts and walked only four hitters. (more…)
Resporter: The first District game is history, what other history lessons would you like to accomplish this season?
Coach John Gallagher, “Complete the season by going to the playoffs, end the season on a winning record, win our district, having the girls see and feel a sense of accomplishment for all their hard work put into the season.”
Resporter: Looking at the other District 26-3A games, the one constant that they all seem to have is errors. How do you get that part of the game to advance? (more…)
The Hawks started the district on the short end last Tuesday night when they lost to the Bandera Bulldogs after their bats went silent.
The Bulldogs pitcher struck out 11 Hawks in the game snuffing out any rallies that the Hawks might have started.
Errors were also a bug-a-do, when a routine grounder made it to the outfield scoring two runs in the top of the first inning. Of the four runs scored by the visitors only one of the runs was earned. (more…)
The Hawks have won five times the last two years in District play. The wins were bunched up between just two schools—Ingram and Llano.
Canyon Lake can now add Boerne to that list after gutting out a hard fought game on the road last Tuesday night in Boerne.
The day did not start well for the Hawks. Missy Romero the pitching ace was battling some health issues and to add to that was a defense that was battling the softball after committing five errors in the first two innings allowing the Greyhounds to take a 2-0 lead. (more…)
The Canyon Lake Hawks lost their seventh game in a row last Friday night at the Hawks diamond against 5A foe San Antonio Reagan Rattlers, 9-5.
The Alamo and Texas Independence was talked about in our last article, but the similarities continue in a season that has had the Hawks facing teams that have over 30 players on the bench. Compare that to the Hawks who have brought many of their players up from the Junior Varsity just to field enough players. (more…)
The CLHS Softball team just finished 4-2 at the Blanco tournament this past weekend and now find themselves looking at District play this Tuesday, March 7th.
The tournament showed the team where they are in terms of overall strength and based on the record the Hawks might have some surprises for some unsuspecting opponents this time around. (more…)
