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

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.”

Bracken starts facing teams that can put more meat on their plate. Marble

Head Coach Lloyd Fields

Last year the Flames ended their campaign with a 9-2 record and are presently, 5-3 with two games remaining.

When asked how motivating the team is going, Coach Lloyd Fields said, “They don’t need us (coaches) to motivate, the team motivates themselves.”

Sounds like a team that is working on a 22 game winning streak.

Bracken has faced and beaten teams that have a 36-28 record for this season.

Bracken Christian made a big statement game on Friday night as they beat SA The Winston, 54-0 for the seventh ‘mercy’ game in a row this season at Warrior Stadium.

BCS held the leading rusher in the Nation to 64 yards on 15 carries. The Winston’s Wilkerson had over 400 yards rushing last week and only approached that number as he was walking back to his bus for the ride home.

“We thought we could slow him (RB Wilkerson) down,” Head Coach Lloyd Fields said defensively. “We shut him down instead.”

Defense wins Championships and the Warriors proved on this night that they might have a better defense than the Championship season last year.

The Warriors gave up 48 points in their first game of the season and now have given up 38 points in their last seven games total.

Canyon Lake Hawks go back to the drawing board as Boerne turns mistakes into touchdowns, as CL loses second consecutive game this season at Boerne stadium, 35-14.

What started as a nice looking game, suddenly changed in the second half to a Greyhound beating.

The Hawks started the game with another patented drive, as CL drove 80 yards on 11 plays and took the early lead, 7-0 after the Jake Robinson point after attempt.

The drive had a lot of Zach Henshaw, as the Senior running back accounted for 73 of the 80 yards for the first score. Henshaw had 53 yards rushing and 20 yards receiving on the drive.

Canyon Lake had two third down plays and both were within three yards for a first down or touchdown.

BOERNE, Texas –The Canyon Lake Freshmen Hawks took a cue from the New York Jets and used their own version of “pound and ground” to rough up the Boerne Greyhounds 26-7 Thursday night to even their season record at 4-4 and 3-1 in district play.

From the first kick and even walking off the bus the Hawks used a physical, suffocating defense and a powerful, efficient run game to win in Boerne for the second time this season.

“We knew we were going to beat them when we walked off the bus,” defensive lineman Dallas Sandau said. “But at the same time we knew they were going to come at us pretty hard because they wanted revenge, so we had to be ready to go.”

The Hawks were indeed ready to go and used their “pound” first on the defensive side of the ball to hold the Greyhounds to 60 total yards and three 1st downs in the first half.

Canyon Lake Junior Varsity were beat by the Greyhounds from Boerne last Thursday at Hawk stadium, 28-7.

The Hawks were run over by a Greyhound by the tune of 276 yards or over eight yards per carry. The game continued to go downhill for both the offense and defense as the game continued in the last two quarters.

Canyon Lake scored on their second drive of the game by going 78 yards on 11 plays to take the lead, 7-6 over Boerne.

The drive was highlighted with a 17 yard pass to Michael Sheffeild and finished with a nifty 20 yard run from Quarterback Connor Ricker.

The Hawks would not score again as they came up empty on their next seven drives for the endzone.

Canyon Lake is coming off their first loss of the year and Head Coach Matt

Head Coach Matt Monzingo

Monzingo took some time to answer some questions about Wimberley and the upcoming Boerne game.

ReSporter: How are you helping the players deal with their first loss of the year?

Coach Monzingo: “They’ve got to get over it…there is not one thing they can do about it and they have got to get back into the zone before this week’s game.”
