Hawks with Devil’s Back Bone Trophy after Wimberley Win

Canyon Lake Broke Wimberley’s Back Bone in Win on Friday at the Hawk Nest, 28-14.

The first year for the Back Bone Trophy will now have a home at Canyon Lake for the next year as the Hawks took care of business in the second half to win their second game in three years over our friends to the North.

This win had a stellar defensive game by both teams but a goal line stand in the third quarter allowed this scrappy Hawk team to stave off the Texans and hold onto their 7 point lead, 21-14.

Turnovers were a friend for CL as in year’s past, it has been a Hawk problem holding onto the ball or throwing interceptions against the Texans.

Two costly fumbles and an interception helped Canyon Lake win a game that has been hard to come by for so many years.

Overall, CL had a good set of games with Wimberley as the Hawk JV had the only loss as they were stranded on the 2 yard line when time ran out on Thursday.

Cameron Hebert, Sheldon Flint, Triston Chacon, and Trenton Lorett after won over Wimberley

Canyon Lake was so convincing in their win over Wimberley that the Texans headed south after the loss at the Hawk Nest, 48-0.

On CL’s first series, the Hawks had a 10 yard penalty holding the Hawks without a first and their first and only punt.

After that series the Texans had a hard time turning off the water in what would be an inevitable convincing win.

That first set of downs had this Freshman team gaining 15 yards but the penalty left them 5 yards short of a first and their first and only punt of the game.

Wimberley got one of their two first downs on their next possession but that was all the joy they would get as the punting formation would become routine.

“They have had a year of hearing Wimberley talk after last year’s game,” Head Freshman Coach Bill Greene said. “They decided they would go to work and win tonight,”

White Lightning and Big Red are all smiles after win over Wimberley, 24-6

Mountain Valley 7th B team ran to a 24 lead while keeping the Texans with just 55 yards of offense helping the Hawks sweep Wimberley on their first game of the season, 24-6.

A paltry 1 first down for Wimberley tells the story as MV gave up just one 49 yard play for the night giving the Texans their only score.

That one play was 89% of the Texans total offense giving Wimberley right at .4 yards per play for the rest of the contest.

Braden Jowers and Shawn Bell along with their teammates dominated Wimberley in their first win

Mountain Valley A squad pitched a shut-out over Wimberley as the Hawks started their season (1-0) winning, 16-0.

Defense was in full gear as the Hawks kept the Texans with just 2 first downs and 47 total yards for the game.

Mountain Valley had the ball twice in that first half but on those two drives they left Wimberley with just 3 plays and a punt.

The Hawks then capitalized on their second time with the ball when they drove 73 yards on 12 plays which drained the clock with a touchdown pass with no time left on the clock.

Coaches Corner

Head Coach Charley Drum

The ReSporter: Hey Coach, when I think about your career at Canyon Lake your first job was Defensive Coordinator….I was thinking what did it feel like watching last week’s game?

Coach Drum: “It was very uncomfortable….I told the defense that you tend to think you got blown out yet we were in the game the whole night. Sometimes you have shoot-outs and sometimes the score is 14-0. We just got to figure out how to win these close games and come up with a big play.”

The ReSporter: What did you talk about in the halftime locker room?

Coach Drum: “I told the defense that they needed to come up with 3 stops to win and we only had one but still had a chance to win the game.”

Coaches Corner

Head Coach Hosea Stredic

The ReSporter had some time to talk with Head Coach Hosea Stredic at Bracken Christian after their first loss of the season this week.

The ReSporter: What will you do to get the younger players on your squad ready for their first road game with The Winston?

Coach Stredic: “I will let them know that although we are going for a ride, it is just another room in our big house. It is our home wherever we go and play.”

The ReSporter: How will you go through your week realizing that you will have to address many of the things that went wrong in the game with Austin Hill Country?

Coach Stredic: “We will practice as planned….Get back into our routine, and we will be fine.” (more…)

Bracken Christian had a wake up call on Friday night as they could not respond the onslaught
of offense and defensive power from Austin Hill Country losing, 57-8.

“Austin Hill Country knocked us in the mouth early and we never made it up to the plate,” Head Coach Hosea Stredic said. “We weren’t firing off of the ball and we were not blocking and when we did block then our running backs were not getting to the hole.”

“We looked like we were lost,” Coach Stredic said looking for an exit.

The Warriors have scored in every game and it has been 20 games since Bracken has not been in double digit scoring in a game. Back in their loss to Boerne Geneva in 2013 season.

Bracken did not go long in the not scoring phase of this game as the Warriors had some trickery as they had Brady Beene running as if he was going to the sideline then snapped the ball as Beene darted down the sideline not being covered.

A perfect pass by Lucas McCrum and Bracken was in business on the Knights 14 yard line when Daniel Forgione had his longest run of the game for a touchdown and a quick, 8-0 lead after Carlos Navarro was good with his kick.

That lead lasted 34 seconds as AHC would give the home town fans an idea of how this game would transpire for the remainder of the evening with a run from 20 yards out and a tied ballgame.

Canyon Lake still had enough energy to kneel after game with Marion

Good news Bad news in game with Marion on Friday night.

Good news? Canyon Lake scored 50 points
Bad news? Canyon Lake lost

Over 100 points scored (105 to be exact) as the Hawks were able to stop the Marion Bulldogs on just two possessions.

“They have a good offensive team and they exposed us,” Head Coach Charley Drum stated. “They took advantage of our young guys and we will have to figure out a way to win this type of games when it counts.”

Coach Drum was talking on how the Hawks seem to lose more close games than they win.
