Mountain Valley Hawks 8th A Team listen to Coaches after loss to Mustangs.

Mountain Valley 8th Grade Football Squads continued their rough and tough schedule as a 5A Marble Falls team came to the Hawk Nest to battle the Hawks.

The Mustangs brought a stout defense for both games keeping MV out of their end zone for the evening.

MV Hawk B team did score but had that momentum sail flap in the wind as the play was nullified with an infraction on the play.

It was a self destruct evening for the ‘B’ team as they used their first drive for 18 plays and after reaching the Mustangs 8 yard line the next 3 plays went backwards dousing the Hawk drive.

Down to 4 District 14-4A Contests                                                       (photo by Karen Holmes)

The ReSporter will go over what is known about 14-4A schools as the district football schedule starts up this Friday.

What we know: Boerne is a good passing team but what might be overlooked is how well of a defensive squad they are and how that will win many games for these Greyhounds.

In Boerne’s last contest with Wimberley they had their worst showing on that side of the ball in giving up 385 yards. What is even more of an eye opener is how well the Texans rushed in this game totaling 255 yards on the ground.

In their two losses, the Greyhounds defense gave up 280 or more in yardage. The Hawks can vouch for how tough Wimberley was to handle on both sides of the ball and the Texans rush defense had the Hawks relying on special teams and a passing game for points.

In Boerne’s first game with Devine their defense gave up over 200 yards on the ground but could only muster 23 yards via the airways. That is how most games go for a slot-T team and this would be another capsule specimen to put under a microscope.

Lucas McCrum has another big game for BCS

Bracken Christian started slow but finished strong in taking down the SA Lutheran Mustangs at Bracken Stadium, 70-25.

“Lutheran came out and played a good game,” Head Coach Hosea Stredic started. “They are well coached and brought it to us….you could see that we were in better shape the longer the game played out.”

“We did not do a good job,” Stredic said succinctly.

Looks like some of the Warriors will have more tuning up to do as this season continues.

Hawks JV fumbled away a win in their game with Akins last Wednesday at the Hawks Nest, 28-30.

Canyon Lake started with a fumble on their first drive and continued that trend through the rest of this contest.

The Hawks scored on their second possession as Connor Rose returned to the line-up after missing the past two games. Rose scored from the 8 yard line and finished the game with 72 yards.

This Akins JV team was undefeated coming into this game and escaped by the skin on their teeth when they scored leaving 30 seconds on the fourth quarter clock.

Canyon Lake Freshman squad rebounded with win over an undefeated Akins team at the Hawk nest, 22-16.

The CL Freshman started this game on shaky ground by gaining just 6 yards on their first three plays and punting to this unbeaten Akins Eagles.

Akins would march the ball for 15 plays and CL’s defense holding on and taking over on their own 23 yard line.

Canyon Lake will be going into new territory on Thursday as the Hawks will play their first 6A school when they travel to Burger Stadium in play Austin Akins.

Hill Country Furnishings says way to go Hawks

The Eagles had an open date last week which will add another ornament on the tree of how CL will attempt compete with a team two classes larger.

Akins is on a two game losing streak after starting the season 2-0 with wins over two teams that have a combined 1-9 record. However that sounds familiar to CL’s schedule as they too started their season 2-0 and those two teams now sport a 2-8 slate.

The Eagles offense has averaged 15 passes a game and 92 yards through the air. That comes to 6 yards per attempt and Akins will have 3 players that will dominate the reception of those throws.
