Canyon Lake evened their record over Fox Tech Buffaloes as 4 Hawks finished the game with double figure scoring, 60-50.

Jacob Pistokache 3 pointers help spark Hawk Stampede

Joseph Boyd led CL with 13 points followed in succession by Tyler Williams (12), Jacob Pistokache (11), and Gerrit Wilkins (10) in this win.

The Hawks shot 52% from the floor in forging the victory after scoring 17 points in the decisive second quarter taking a 1 point first quarter deficit to their margin of victory and a 10 point lead into halftime.

With 18 Hawk steals the Buffaloes could not find enough grass in the Hill Country to graze and this eventual loss.

Tech did increase their 1 point 2nd quarter lead to 3 points which would be the Buffaloes largest lead in the game.

Canyon Lake Broadcasting’s Future

The idea was a simple one as we started thinking through the next phase of having the students at Canyon Lake highlighted in a market that leaves CL in the dark for the most part.

Yes, the New Braunfels’ paper covers the Hawks but for obvious reasons this paper has many other schools that are much larger that demands their attention.

Hence, The ReSporter and now Canyon Lake Broadcasting (CBL) is in their first year of working football games for the Hawk Nation.

Recent Grad Haden Lee

Canyon Lake was blessed with many students that excelled with their sport from the football field to soccer field and diamond to hard wood.

Two athletes were voted as the MVP of their sport which was a record for the Hawks and the list below has all the athletes The ReSporter was told of accomplishments.

Bailey Drum in Volleyball and Haden Lee for Football topped the list for this past season and as Seniors will look forward to seeing how these two will adjust to College as Drum will be off to Angelo State University and Lee as aspirations of walking on and compete for an opening at Texas State.

Congratulations for an entertaining year as the Hawk Nation will now look forward to seeing more CL students this coming school year.

Jacob Ramirez is looking forward to next year’s Season

The Basketball Season for Canyon Lake turned over their previous years by making the playoffs for the first time in their history, but it was those turnovers of a different nature that caused the downfall as the Hawks lost their battle with the Ducks, 73-43, on Tuesday night in Cedar Creek.

CL had been averaging just 16 turnovers per game these past few weeks but the butterflies won on this night as the Hawks finished with 23 against a team that was very athletic.

Those passes against Yoakum became a hazard in playing Taylor as these players had the quickness and the ability to close those passing lanes and turn that Hawk pass into an overage of points in this win.

Canyon Lake had those turnovers lead to 26 points and what turned out to be a 30 point loss.

The good news? Canyon Lake started 3 Juniors while the Ducks had 4 Seniors start this contest.

The ReSporter: Congrats once again on reaching a milestone that is well deserved.

The ReSporter: What can you tell us about the Taylor Ducks?

Head Basketball Coach Lucas Chapman

Coach Chapman: “They are big and athletic and can really get up and down the court. They shoot the ball well from deep and can really attack and rebound the ball. They are certainly going to be a tough opponent, but someone that I think we can certainly play with if we do the things we want to do.”

The ReSporter: I noticed from your last few games that certain players are sharing more of the load in rebounds, etc. Is that by design or just what happens in the flow of the game?
Coach Chapman: “That just happens in the flow of the game. Sometimes the ball bounces differently, so to speak, so rebounding can be fickle sometimes. I do like that we are having more guys get rebounds, especially the guards.”

The ReSporter: What are 2 or 3 things you will need to shore up in order to put this team in a place to pull off an upset?
Coach Chapman: “We need to keep them out of the paint and off of the glass on the defensive end of the floor. If we can do that we have a great shot. We also need to slow them down and make sure they don’t get a bunch of transition and run-out layups. That’s where they really hurt you.” (more…)
