By the time their Moms got to their CL sons the nightmare was over and all the Hawks had to show for this game was a relieved look on their face as this season came to a close.

The Hawks carried this game to that last inning when a year of troubles finally released all that bad karma and Navarro had taken a close game and turned into a nightmarish 13 run inning and a final score of, 15-1.

How about two grand slams in that seventh inning and a batting order that batted around two times.

 Tale of the 7th Inning
 Hit Batters:   2
 Singles:       5
 Doubles:       3
 Home Runs:     2
 Walks:         3

What will make you shake your head is that CL had controlled this game and had a chance in the bottom of the sixth inning to take the lead when the Hawks loaded the bases with no outs.

That nightmare started with that inning as Canyon Lake had one out on a squeeze play that went awry. Another potential score that was thrown out at the plate after another single.

Navarro took that defensive momentum and went crazy from the plate as Travis Walker finally ran out of gas and what fuel that was still in the tank blew up from a spark off the bats of the Navarro Panthers looking to clinch a spot for the playoffs.

That was certainly accomplished with those 13 runs and now Fredericksburg will go home without a spot in the post season as they needed a Navarro loss for a chance to play on.

Walker had another good pitching game save that last inning as he kept those Panthers guessing with his ‘eefus’ or Big Cheese pitch for much of the evening.

Canyon Lake became Fredericksburg’s best friend as the Hawks knocked off Navarro with the pitching of a Ryan Hutcheson, five hit shut out, 3-0.

Fredericksburg needs Navarro to lose to give them a chance to finish third in district play and be awarded a spot in the post-season.

CL pulled out a masterful 80 pitch outing from Hutcheson as he evened his record at 4 and also threw strikes and giving only one Panther a free ride to first.

“Hutcheson was able to get all three pitches over for strikes, his fastball, curveball and knuckle ball,” Senior Catcher Brady said. “He kept the Panther hitters off balance for the whole game.”

Hutcheson’s battery mate also helped the teams cause by raising his batting average to .411 for the season with a double, run, and rbi.

Cody Powell also scored two of the runs while Corey Shedrock contributed a double for Canyon Lake.

Canyon Lake JV beat Wimberley for the fourth time this season as they take 3rd Place in District

27-3A, 9-7.

In a phrase, Canyon Lake Owns the Wimberley Texans this season as this game gave the Hawks their fourth win over their friends from the north.

CL gift wrapped six errors and five walks and still did more little things right which helped in giving an edge to the Hawks.

More enthusiasm seemed to be a common theme among the players and coaches.

“After Thursday’s games they were geared up today,” Head JV Coach Brian Owens said. “Yes, we had a few errors, but we were ready to rock when they got off the bus.”

“They (Hawks baseball team) figured it out on Thursday and I’m not a chanting Coach, but when they used that to get fired up then I will just let them go at it…when they got off the bus they wanted to play with enthusiasm.”

The break out inning happened in the fourth with four runs and giving CL a lead that would not be taken for the rest of this windy but beautiful day.

Gordon McCleary reached on an error to start off that inning and then was followed by a single from Nick Kissell.

With two batters on and one out, Hayden Lee hit a line drive through the infield and started the flood gates for Canyon Lake.

Canyon Lake lost their series to Boerne after a hard fought game Friday night, 7-1.

The Hawks out hit the Greyhounds but they could not bunch enough hits together to mount many threats.

Another good outing from pitcher Ryan Hutcheson as he held this very potent offense to just six hits.

J. J. Nance continues to climb up with his batting average after collecting two of CL’s hits.

Daniel Reed also got back into action and responded with a hit and the Hawks lone run.

“We played awesome defense,” Head Coach Trent Dunavant started. “We could not string hits together and Boerne had hits that were doubles, triples and a deep home run.”

Boerne has had a dominating baseball team this season with a 12-0 record in district play.

Look at the Greyhounds games with District 27-3A teams when you add runs from their three game series.

If you add runs scored for those games, then you would have the scores shown below from those composite scores.

 Bandera           34-1
 Fredericksburg    33-3
 Navarro           28-6
 Canyon Lake       11-3
 Wimberley*        10-4 (1 game)

*Will finish series with Wimberley next week.

Canyon Lake JV Baseball team split their two games on Thursday for the opening day of District 27-3A Tournament.

In the first game CLJV beat Bandera and then faced Boerne in a loss to a team that seems to have the Hawk’s number this season.

Anytime you have as many errors as you have hits will tell you that this might not be a good result.

Canyon Lake will now face one of the three teams that met in Boerne for the other three team pod.

Saturday at 12 Noon will be the start time as the Hawks will play for 3rd place finish in district play in Boerne.

Jonathan McGuire led CLJV with two hits while Hayden Dubois and Austin Headrick scored the only runs of this contest in that first inning.

Canyon Lake JV baseball team split their games with Navarro Panthers last Monday night at the

Hawk Diamond. Winning the first game 7-4 and coming out on the short end 13-8 in the nightcap.

The Hawks dug themselves in a hole in both games, but the second game their hole was much deeper than a Hawk could climb (or fly) out of.

“We started both games the same in making the same mistakes over and over,” Head JV Coach Brian Owens said. “I challenged them on communicating, but for the most part I was pleased with our pitchers.”

Canyon Lake did have some good pitching in that first game as Nick Kissell had a decent outing with Gordon McCleary closing out this contest.

The Hawks did have a little bit of fireworks as Austin Headrick hit a two run home run in the bottom of that fourth inning giving Canyon Lake their lead back after allowing the tying runs in the top of that same inning.

If Boerne is ranked in the Top 5 for the State of Texas, then based on the past two contests with the

Greyhounds, Canyon Lake should be ranked in the Top 10.

Simply put, the Hawks lost another one run game to a very sound baseball team and all they have to show for this outing is another loss.

However, that is not entirely true based on the level of play displayed on Tuesday night at the Hawk’s Baseball Diamond.

Travis Walker was nails on the mound as he held the Greyhounds to four hits and CL’s defense was just as impressive in helping to keep this game in doubt until that last out.

Walker had Boerne guessing at the plate as he threw the ‘eefus’ pitch with mastery.

“I’ve been throwing that pitch since I was 12 years old,” Walker recollected. “They called it the ‘Big Cheese’, and somedays it is on and somedays it is off.”

That pitch would be classified as being ‘on’ this evening.
