Six-man football is one of the toughest games to have a legitimate idea on how good opposing teams might be.
Many times you can’t find out much from UIL 2A and 3A schools, much less for teams that represent a much smaller enrollment and then add the vast land in Texas and you have teams that could be facing each other during playoffs that could rival traveling three or four states in the Northeast USA.
One thing we do know about Geneva, they are only 30 miles from Bracken and you can deduce or have a better idea of their strength, but it still is not an exact science.
Another item we know about this Eagle team is their record. They bring an unblemished record and have played an UIL club and beat them handily in Rochelle by 44 points.
This team has played two regulation games while Bracken has mercy ruled their opponents and last week only played 11 minutes before Brenham Christian had to throw in the towel based on not having enough players left after starting the game with nine on their roster.
Pre/Game: La Grange (3-1) @ Canyon Lake (1-3)
Thursday, September 27th, 2012Friday night at Hawk Stadium 7:30pm
History: First game between the two schools.
This Years Games: Hawks 26 Blanco 21 Leopards 36 Marble Falls 56 Hawks 35 Somerset 54 Leopards 46 Columbus 07 Hawks 13 La Vernia 14 Leopards 48 Royal 00 Hawks 31 Burnet 37 Leopards 47 Needville 00
La Grange will be coming into this game with a three game winning streak and this squad has not been scored on in their last two games.
How about 141 points offensively while giving up just one touchdown in their last three games.
Junior running back Rodney Filmore will be a player Canyon Lake will need to focus on in the backfield to keep the Leopards at bay.
The Drum Beat with Coach Drum
Wednesday, September 26th, 2012The ReSporter: Hey Coach Drum, the weather forecast might be calling for rain this Friday.

Head Coach Charley Drum
Coach Drum: “It should not alter our game plan, last week Burnet took away our running game and we switched to passing and we did fine.”
The ReSporter: La Grange has a strong running game, does that play to our strength defensively?
Coach Drum: “I really don’t know what our strength is right now. Yes and no, in the past couple of games we had shut down our opponent’s rushing game, but last week Burnet opened up the field and we had a hard time stopping either one, they (Burnet) took advantage of us in open space.”

Sad Win for BCS in Beating Brenham, 60-12
Sunday, September 23rd, 2012Sad win for Bracken Christian as they grounded the Eagles scoring 52 points
Warrior shows his might to Young child after game.
in the first quarter last Saturday at the Warrior field for a 60-12 final.
Final, because Bracken’s Receiver Arnold Adame was carted out of the end zone after scoring a 34 yard catch and run. The tackle was at least five yards in the end zone and the unsuspecting tackle brought Adame to ground in pain.
The game was delayed as Adame was attended to. This young man lost most of the season last year with a leg injury and lightning struck again, bringing an end to this season for all intense and purposes.
The 58 points scored in the first quarter had been matched or beat only two other times in the last 75 games of Bracken football history. The Winston game had that same amount scored two years ago and also during that same year the BCS-OLH playoff game had 64 points scored.

CL Game was Hapless, Season not Hopeless, Lose 37-31
Saturday, September 22nd, 2012

Fullback Matt Riffe running after Catch
Canyon Lake let their guard down in the fourth quarter and Burnet took advantage with 20 unanswered points winning with 28 seconds on the clock, 37-31 for a Homecoming crowd in Burnet last Friday night.
The Hawks won the middle two quarters 31-3, but could not find any momentum to start or end this game.
Burnet started the game with a 17 play 82 yard drive for a 7-0 lead right out of the doghouse.
CL could not match the intensity and had a three play and punt on their first series. How about 27 yards of first quarter offense, and only 2:54 of time with the ball.
Hopeful Tidbit: Punter Branson Belcher had five punts for 44.6 yards in the game. Eric Nelson still holds the game record with a 51 average against Ingram in 2009. Belcher’s average for the season is in line for a Canyon Lake best with 40 yards on 12 punts. A punter has the potential to change field position which can help win close games.
The Bulldogs were at it again on their second possession traveling 63 yards on eight plays while mixing up runs and passes, which kept Canyon Lake on their heels.
Canyon Lake’s rushing offense was not at their best on this night averaging less than four yards per carry. However, the passing game would unleash some potent ammo by accumulating 300 yards on the night.
The Hawks had just three players catching a pass in the first three games. Belcher would double that number in spreading the wealth around.
Mountain Valley 8th Grade has tie and loss to Burnet
Friday, September 21st, 2012Mountain Valley ‘B’ squad ended up in a stalemate against Burnet Bullpups ‘B’ squad last Thursday in the first game of three at Hawk Stadium.
MV’s first drive would be the best chance for a score for both teams, as this Hawk team drove to the Pups five yard line after running out of downs.
The drive had an incredible pass from QB Jackson Neel to Mason Blackburn for a cool 32 yards. Mountain Valley would have another first down to the four yard line when the dreaded penalty help stop a potential scoring opportunity.
“I was just hoping i would catch the ball,” Blackburn said.
This game was more of a defensive battle, witness the points scored and you get the idea. Mountain Valley had Linebacker Chris Hernandez running from the backfield and also plugging holes defensively.
“I was running by instinct,” Hernandez said while commenting about his running style. “I like to play defense better, because it is easier to remember the plays.”

Coaches Corner: Bracken’s Lloyd Fields
Friday, September 21st, 2012The ReSporter: How has your practices been going in

Head Coach Lloyd Fields
Coach Fields: “We did some tune up at camp this week, but this type of week is not conducive for practice.”
The ReSporter: So how did the players look for that limited time?
Coach Fields: “We looked halfway decent…our conditioning has been hurt, but we are as healthy as we can be.”
The ReSporter: Do you use games like this to work on your depth?
Coach Fields: “Bracken only has 11 players on the team right now, so depth just want happen. We do have a second offense, but that is just moving players to different positions. Brenham Christian only has nine players.”
