CL Lake Hawks come down with ‘Fumbleitis’ in loss to Taylor on Saturday afternoon, 31-28.

Senior Matt Adams is not finished yet.

“Defensively we did real well,” Head Coach Charley Drum started. “We have had problems this year (with fumbles) and I hated this for our seniors.”

Coach Drum continued, “They took care of the ball and we gave a talented team field position all game with our fumbles.”

The Hawks could not stand prosperity as they went bankrupt in giveaways by coughing up 5 lost fumbles in this winnable contest.

Taylor jumped out to a quick 9 point lead before Canyon Lake responded with 4 consecutive touchdown drives and what many thought was a comfortable halftime lead, 28-9.

Head Coach Hosea Stredic adresses Warriors 3 months ago as BCS enters last regular season game this week.

Bracken Christian wins big over rival Kerrville OLH, 54-0 on the road last Friday night.

“We came out and took care of business,” Head Coach Hosea Stredic commented. “We played a full game and played the way we should have played.”

“In a game like this, it was important to get all the players on the field,” Coach Stredic stressed.

The Warriors were on their game after scoring 40 points in that first quarter which had not been done since Eli Achilles was calling plays for Bracken.

Hawks having one more talk before this night is through in win over Ducks, 41-14

Canyon Lake Freshman remain undefeated after calling the Ducks out for one more hunt, winning 41-14.

“There is not enough balls to go around,” Head Freshman Coach Bill Greene said when responding to the depth of this team’s running backs. “We want to get this group of players to do anything they can to succeed and stay away from losing.”

This group of players have not been on the losing ledger for a while now and Coach Greene certainly has a chance of finishing the year with a team that would not have to remember what a bad taste you can get with a loss.

The Hawks had a good season as they are one more game away from doing a fete not yet accomplished for the Canyon Lake community in finishing this season by continuing their untouchable persona.

CL had their Junior Varsity finish undefeated back during the 2010 season which has been that one campaign where that team took care of their whole slate of games.

From Left to Right: Luis Juarez, Duncan Coleman, Calvin Graves, Wyatt Wiggins, Head Coach Mary Beth Gallagher, Ty Sexton, Reid Crownover, (not shown)-Adam Wiewel

Canyon Lake’s Boy’s Cross Country team will be off to the races this week at they will embark on their second year of running the Regional race after finishing in 3rd place last week in Sequin.

“As a whole, everyone is running better but so is the district,” Head Cross Country Coach Mary Beth Gallagher started. “We knew we had to step up our game this year.”

Graduate Nash Opperman led the crew last year for the first opportunity to cash in on qualifying in last year’s district meet. Opperman is now running in Schreiber at Kerrville after the successful season.

“We had boy’s finish ahead of Nash’s (Opperman) time last year and they did not even place in this meet,” Coach Gallagher said in amazement. “So we have accomplished more as a team this year.”

                 CL Hawk Band Adding to the Football Drama each Friday Night

Canyon Lake won their second game in a row in district play keeping the Hawks in second place after win over Fredericksburg, 17-6.

“We talked and knew this game would be a struggle,” Head Coach Charley Drum stated. “We got the lead and they (the Billies) just could not get any consistency offensively.”

“We just kept chopping wood,” Coach Drum said. “We made the plays and we just stepped up on that drive.”

This game was a defensive affair as each team had 5 possessions in that first half and that last drive for CL would be huge.

The Hawks took advantage with their final time on offense in the half, when second string QB Jackson Neel, found Austin Brennan on a 37 yard pass pitting the ball on the Billies 3 yard line.

Troy Eyster and Noah Du Menial  are all smiles after Blurring the Billies and both moving up to MVMS A Team

The Mountain Valley 7th A Squad was all over Fredericksburg like read is over a book, 32-0.

This game was all MV Hawks as both the defense and offense control the line of scrimmage with a shut out and almost 300 yards of offense as this Billie team would need to explain all of those brands left on their back side when the got home.

Enter, Running Back Troy Eyster, who could have scored twice on each of his runs as he lapped the Billies with each carry.

Try this on for size: Runs for Eyster would consist of yardage of 13, 30, 27, and 25 yard touchdown to run out the clock.

Actually Eyster was so fast he really did run out the clock as their was still :35 seconds left on this running clock when he scored and no more plays needed as the running clock was kept on in trying to catch this runner.

“We were focused in practice this week,” Eyster batted an eye. “The offensive line is great and they always make holes for me to run through this week and we will got ready after last week’s loss.”

Has The ReSporter mentioned that Eyster is fast yet?

Fullback Rolando Maronge helps in another Hawk Gold Win

The CL Hawks Gold team ran away from Fredericksburg in Thursday night’s win, 24-6.

This Gold team has not much press this year since most of the games have been on the road. There was one game to be played at Hawk Stadium about a month ago, but lightning cancelled that contest and no game played.

So the Gold Hawks decided to show the home folk how they have been disposing of opponents this season.

On CL’s first drive, they took 6 plays before they would make their mark on this Billie team when Rolando Maronge took the game and ball in hand for the one yard touchdown dive play.

This drive had three good runs by different backs as Maronge took care of the last three runs after Carter McCormick with a 17 yard dash and a Zack Burgess 35 yard run with both helping in getting that first score.

A battle of two undefeated teams was played out at Hawk Stadium as Canyon Lake left the field with their no loss season in tack, 14-6.

Canyon Lake figured out real early that this would be a good game as Fredericksburg used the quarterback read play with their QB running the ball from their 28 yard line to the Hawks 41 marker before a forced punt after three average running plays.

Then on the Billies defensive side of the ball, CL was throttled with a 15 yard drive on 6 plays resulting in a punt which is a position not seen much during this year’s games.

That punt by Trenton Lorett did travel 54 yards backing Fredericksburg inside their 20 yard line.

The Billies started their scoring on that drive after going 81 yards on 11 plays, when Running Back Sebera scored from 5 yards out.

A 33 yard pass play helped in getting Fredericksburg in good field position for that score as the Billies needed 23 yards for a first on that play.

Zoe Edwards showing good form for a kill in Win against Cuero

Canyon Lake JV win another game getting one more victory closer to a District 26-4A Championship, 25-18, 23-25, 25-15.

This Hawk club is a heart attack waiting to happen as they have a way of going 3 sets in almost all of their district games.

On this night in their game with Cuero, the Hawk’s JV team decided to lose the second set where in the past the first set was that contest with the first loss.

“We get comfortable and then our communication broke down in that second set,” Head JV Coach Megan Helmey said. “We talked about wanting to defend their district title and start trusting each other and show this team (Cuero) who we are.”
