Canyon Lake’s 10th year of competition will get started this week as the 3 Fall Sports start preparing for competition.
The Hawk’s Volleyball squad will have a scrimmage against Blanco on Friday while both the Cross Country and Football crews will start their first week of getting in shape coming this Monday.
Head Girl’s Basketball Coach Zach Burleson
The ReSporter: First off, Coach…has this district panned out as expected in how strong the teams are?
Coach Burleson: “Yeah, we knew going in it would be tough. Not only are there no nights off, there are no quarters off. Meaning, 1 bad quarter will cost you the game. That’s what we are up against.”
The ReSporter: What can you take away from the loss to Fredericksburg on Tuesday based on your earlier loss and how this game finished?
Coach Burleson: “It was our best effort in a month. Win or lose, I am very proud of our effort. I felt our 1st half was great meaning that our intensity level was where it’s needs to be. We gave ourselves a chance, just were not able to score enough tonight. But, if we can match that intensity that we displayed, it will give us opportunities to knock somebody off.”

Hawks Flying High & Beat Boerne
The Volleyball Team has now finished their first round of District 28-4A competition with one loss and still have a good chance of finishing 1st or 2nd.
With their loss to Fredericksburg, Canyon Lake will need to sweep the next round meaning a big road game at the Billies gym to have a chance of sharing the district crown or with the help of the other 3 teams having a chance of sitting alone on top.
The Billies are on a roll and finished the first round unscathed and now with an off date this Tuesday, CL will start their round with a home game against Boerne this Friday.

Canyon Lake’s Cross Country team was one of the sports to go from a tough district to an impossible district after the realignment of schools.
The Hawks district was tough with La Vernia and other schools last year, but CL’s Boys team did qualify for Regions both years.

Canyon Lake has not only been fed some stellar athletes for the boys, but the girls these past few years has also been very accomplished coming out of Mountain Valley Middle School too.
Girls Athletic Director and Softball Coach John Gallagher
The ReSporter had a conversation with Girl’s Athletic Director John Gallagher to get the scoop.
The ReSporter: Hey Coach Gallagher give us your overall opinion on last year’s sports for the ladies.
Coach John Gallagher: “This year was a success throughout the athletic program. All of our female athletes worked very hard both in-season and off-season in the athletic period. As a whole our female athletes recorded improvement their strength, speed, and agility through a detailed workout program implemented by our coaches. There was also a higher level of academic achievement with many of our athletes being named to All-District Academic honors.”
The ReSporter: The Volleyball team set the bar high when they won the School’s first District Championship.
