The Canyon Lake JV team will be glad the last game was played…based on how many players were walking around on crutches on the sidelines and with other circumstances has made the team thin in numbers.

Hence, the 41-12 drubbing at the hands of a Bulldog from Bandera.

The game started on a bright note as Canyon Lake quickly moved the ball for 69 yards on just five plays, highlighted by a 47 yard run from running back Karl Weidner.

Most of the highlights ended with that run as the Bulldogs unleashed a Stouffet with runs and punt returns, taking the wind out of the sails for CL.

The Hawks did answer a touchdown on their first possession of the second half after Bandera had struck for the first score of the half.

Bracken Christian will have a statement game this week against

Kerrville OLH and the ReSporter had some time to talk to Head Coach Lloyd Fields.

Coach Fields was relatively in a good mood for the interview as the ReSporter found that Coach Fields has a second job as a Movie Critic.

When Coach got Coachy he came up with some decent strategy for BCS fans out there.

“We have three keys for the victory,” Coach Fields said. “Slow down (Marshall) Walker, field the onside kick, and don’t call Coach Thornton, Jeremy.”

Interviewing a sage like Coach Fields will make your hair turn grey or lose it all together.

“Weird feeling knowing your destiny is in other people’s hands,”

Head Coach Matt Monzingo started the weekly talk with sobering words.

Canyon Lake could either be in their last week of practice or with a little help, could be in for the second season that involves playoffs.

“This is a first in all my years as a coach,” Monzingo continued. “You can’t plan, you can’t scout…this is extremely frustrating.”

When asked how the practices are going for this week, Monzingo stated, “Practice is going good…Bandera has good skill at quarterback.”

This will be the third team in a row that revolves around the quarterback as far as passing and running the ball.

Bracken Christian doused the Flames from Marble Falls, 64-8 in their eighth mercy game in a row for this season…a record.

The offense is lethal, but the defense could be better.

The only problem in making that projection, is the defense gets to play more than the offense.

Bracken has had only 10 drives since the first game against Austin Hill Country that resulted in more than four plays before a score.

This Warriors team has so many weapons to unleash when the playoffs start in a couple of weeks. Right now, if the runner gets tackled, then the play was a failure.

Competition will be ramped up another notch this week as Bracken will try to find out if the light bill has been paid for the lights for the field.

Canyon Lake Hawks continued their dominance over the Billies winning their third game in a row on Senior Night at Hawk stadium, 35-7.

The Hawks have three wins over a total of one team in the short history…..Fredericksburg!!

After a first year loss by 51 points, the Hawks have now pummeled the Billies for the third time and improved their record to 7-2, which is also a record for the most wins in a season.

It took a while for CL to not have self inflicted wounds, as the first quarter started to look like the last two games where turnovers were the norm.

A fumble on the first drive and then an interception with the second drive stopped a possible two scores and leaving the Billies squarely within smelling distance.

Both turnovers were inside the Red Zone where the Hawks had suffered in their earlier losses.

Senior Quinn Pike stepped up finishing a three play 58 yard drive for the first CL score. The 44 yards pass and run was a thing of beauty as the Billie defender was left holding nothing but air. (more…)

The Hawks Freshman were blown away literally as the winds from the North played havoc for both teams last Thursday night at Hawk Stadium.

Canyon Lake took advantage of the wind first as the Fredericksburg center sent the ball past the quarterback and what started with the ball on the 34 yard line the Hawks recovered the ball on the eight and ready for the short drive.

The play set the Billies back 26 yards. Two Hayden Dubois runs later CL had their 6-0 lead.

“We came ready to play we just had too many mistakes,” Head Coach Brian Owens said. “We weren’t handling the middle of the line and we had to make the most of it.”

“Give it up for the offensive line, but they were better to the bitter end,” Coach Owens continued. “This team is really special…they play together more than any freshman team I have had.”

The good news for the Billies, if you don’t pass much, then you might be able to minimize the wind by running the ball.

“We stunk it up,” Head Coach Matt Monzingo ended and started this

week’s article the same way. “I’m disappointed we did not take care of business.”

Canyon Lake now is in the position of needing help from other teams in order to have a chance for the playoffs.

“I don’t like my destiny in someone’s hands,” Coach Monzingo said. “We were not focused…we had a team meeting on Monday, and the kids thought it was going to be easy.”
