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.

The Bracken Warriors Girls Cross Country team dominated the State meet

Cross Country Coach Jack Roettinger

held in Waco last weekend.

“We had a good pre State season,” Cross Country Coach Jack Roettinger said. “With meets in Hondo, Junction, Comfort, UTSA, and Hope gave us our stepping stones to State.”

“The girls matured through out and UTSA was the meet when they knew they could compete,” Coach Roettinger continued. “They finished fourth out of 13 teams.”

The Warriors finished with a 23 point lead with no Seniors on the squad.

Bracken looks like they might be able to pitch a permanent tent at the Waco course for the next several years.

“The girls have really good training and competitive practices,” Coach Roettinger strolled. “They are real dedicated and have a lot of perseverance.”

Blockers Bailey Beene and Wendy Johnson taking care of Business

The Area round of playoffs was a slow starting game for the Bracken Warriors as they had to come back to win the first game and then cruised to a three game sweep of Dalllas Lakehill Warriors at the Bracken gym on Tuesday night.

“Working out our nerves for the first playoff game…I don’t like the bye,” Head Coach Shaunna Teuton stated. “We did play some warm up games, but the playoffs are different and we needed to have one under our belt.”

BCS could not get any rallies as the team seemed to be playing in quick sand for much of the first game.

“We were just nervous on the first game,” Killer Amanda Morgan said. “We just played the first game as a warm up game and did not take it seriously.”

On the solution, Morgan reiterated, “We will warm up harder for the next game.”

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.

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.

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.

Amber Ramsey goes for the kill in game against Wimberley

The Lady Hawks know what standard that is needed now as they look towards next season.

This year’s team will not have the thrill of advancing to the playoffs like the previous two Hawk teams.

The first game Canyon Lake kept the score close trailing 6-8 going into the last half of the rotation.

Then the flood gates were opened and the Hawks could not get any rallies going to equate with the lethal Lady Texans.

Wimberley is one of the mainstays in Volleyball as they have set up a permanent residence in the playoffs for many years now.

CASA got infested with Warriors as Bracken Christian crushed the Rams, 74-6 in a blowout Homecoming win, last Friday at Warrior Stadium.

This was the second game in as many years that Bracken could of called a game after the first quarter, as they scored over 45 points. The 58 point quarter was 12 points more when BCS had when they beat SA Lutheran last year.

Unfortunately for CASA the game went another quarter, but Bracken took it easy on their visitors from San Antonio. The Warriors finished taking a knee on the doorstep of CASA’s one yard line.

CASA had one of 33 plays that something good happened and their only score. The 70 yard pass play allowed the Rams to finish with positive yardage for the game with 51 total yards.
