Canyon Lake’s Baseball shook off the cobwebs as their last 6 games the Lake had been treading water and needed to dry off with a win to get back on track with district season just around the corner.

                          Let’s Go Hawks!!

The Hawks had a 2-3-1 record through this part of their schedule and a contest against another quality opponent needed a complete win which this, 6-0 victory accomplished.

PITCHING: Carter Williams (4-0) pitched another gem allowing one hit while striking out 10 Apache’s. A sparkling 0.26 earned run average with only 7 hits in William’s last 27 innings of work.

FIELDING: One miscue at the end of this game which did not allow an earned run for a clean ending. Of CL’s 34 runs allowed only 19 have been earned.

HITTING: Twelve hits being placed into Left-Center-Right Field giving Antonian’s defense plenty of action. Don’t forget that, ‘couldn’t have been placed at a better place,’  bunt (Gram Simpson) and power coming off the bat of Williams with two screamers that had a triple that led to the only run that would be needed in this conquest that other screamer finished as a double.

It was that Williams triple in the bottom of the 3rd frame that scored Hayes Holladay from first base and with a one out Ryder Hopper single scoring that 2nd run.

                      Way to Go Lake!!

Canyon Lake was not finished tho… with 2 outs a Simpson single set up a first and third steal of home plate for Hopper before that final out on the base paths when Simpson was caught in a rundown and the Hawk’s had a, 3-0 lead.

The top of the 4th inning Antonian’s only hit was stranded when Williams finished this inning striking out the last two batters throwing 11 pitches with 9 of those in the strike zone.

The Lake would coax single run in their last three innings which put those finishing touches for a complete game that will hopefully set up CLHS with a runway for next week’s Spring Break  that will be crafted with chances to get a winning streak and fine tuning of those little things needed for a successful district schedule.

But before next week, The Lake, will be back in action this Friday with a 6:30pm first pitch against Crystal City. Keep it CLEAN Hawks!

Let’s Go Lake!

Lady Hawk’s Soccer team celebrate a win and Savanna Oberholtzer scoring over 100 goals in win over Mustangs! Way to GO LAKE!

Be Authentic with your Hawk Gear & LET’s GO LAKE!

The Lake’s Girls Soccer team won their 5th district game after a win at Marble Falls, 4-1 that will now leave CL with their last home game against Davenport this Friday.

Win or lose in the Wolves battle will still have your Hawks with a 2nd seed for the smaller 4A grouping with Wimberley.

It was this same scenario with CLake’s Boys Basketball when Fredericksburg making the playoffs moved The Lake to the smaller school category.

This win moved Canyon Lake (12-4-4 season)~(5-1-3 district) with a continued good defensive effort for the season. Allowing just 19 goals or less than one goal per contest.

        Go Lake & Go Far in Post-Season!

Marble Falls got their goal early in this game (34:38) minutes left in that first half and from there it The Lake’s Dam would not be broken again while CLHS responded with 4 unanswered goals in this victory.

Offensively, Savanna Oberholtzer had her feet in all the scoring with 3 goals and an assist to Ryarose Clark for the other score. Oberholtzer scored her 100th goal in this game and finished with 102 for this season with a record 7 goals scored in an earlier win over Bandera with an assist finishing with 15 points in her 17 shots.

A win over Davenport this Friday would give Canyon Lake more momentum going into their playoff season and raise their goal of going further this go-round.

After the Mustangs opening score, it was a Oberholtzer break-a-way that gave her a one on one with the goalie and score just 1 minute and 13 seconds later and a tied game.

The Hawks were against the wind in that first stanza but did score two more times at the 10:53 mark by Ryarose Clark and then right before half at the 2:16 time a score, 3-1 lead that gave CL a secured win knowing that the play of Goalie Callie Dominguez would put a clamp on the Home Team.

This was a rough outing for CL with several ladies that left the game with some bruises….”Yeah…I tried to get some players off and get some rest and hopefully not an injuries but it still happened,” Head Coach Kara Stracener shared.

On what will be the team goals this week with the last district game and the post-season? “It’s just important that game helps propel us into the playoffs and not like a let down but regardless of the outcome (of the Davenport game) we will still be in 3rd place and second seed for small (schools bracket).”

Canyon Lake continues a strong season with higher goals this season and as always…..Way to GO LAKE!

                       Let’s GO HAWKS!!

Canyon Lake’s Soccer just missed a golden opportunity for staving off Wimberley for a win last Friday but a tie certainly cemented this team for a 3rd seed with a chance of upping that ante with a sweep of this week’s contests.

Wimberley has one loss for this season (to a team from Louisiana) and two ties (to a team from the Hawk Nest). All the rest of their battles have been wins and now if The Lake can secure a win this Tuesday in Marble Falls and at home against Davenport…then that should give CLHS a 2nd seed going into the playoffs.

The Hawks scored in the first half with a corner kick that had the ball bouncing around like a pin-ball machine for a few seconds when Junior 4Midfielder Ryarose Clark scored her 7th goal of the season with just over a 20 minutes into this game.

                          Let’s Go Lake!

That was when Goalie Callie Dominguez went to work by saving several shots on goals by these Texans.

With the score tied at 1 goal a piece Dominguez was able to just tip a ball over the back of the net that was just inches for a score.

“I was just hoping I would get to it,” Dominguez said when asked what she was thinking as the ball approached the net. “It was just all the way up there (top of the net)….I don’t really think but just react to the ball.”

On keeping the Texans’ to just one goal in two games, “I’ve been just trying to shut them down and my defenders….they’re great and I really appreciate all of them.”

Head Coach Kara Stracener shared her thoughts, “Sometimes it’s hard to score so early in a game because you have so much time to play…but our girls played great…we had a game plan and they did a really good job everybody doing their job collectively.”

Coach Stracener closed, “We talked about the fight in the ‘dog’ tonight and we had some dogs fight and that was what I was most proud of…”

Canyon Lake will be back in action this Tuesday in Marble Falls a team fighting for that 4th seed and then Friday at home against Davy.

Keep those dogs fighting as this regular season closes out!

Go Hawks & BEAT MARBLE FALLS!

Senior Rylan Oppelt will have more hurdles in life and looks like he will clear them all. Go Lake!

            Way to Stay in Shape Hawks!

Canyon Lake’s Lady Hawk Tracksters finished with 172 points at the Hawk Relays with Savanna Oberholtzer garnering 39 points to lead The Lake to a first place spot amongst 7 schools.

Oberholtzer finished first in the Long Jump/Triple Jump/100 meter dash and helped the Hawk 4×100 Relay with a first place finish.

The ReSporter does not know at this writing all the participants Canyon Lake used in their relay events so points on this article might not be correct.

Other Lady Hawks who finished in double digit scoring Hannah Hammer (20 pts), Te’a Gonzales (15 pts), Kennedy Grindle (17 pts), Eva Zabarcencu (12 pts), Aubrey Avey (14 pts).

Freshman Te’a Gonzales will be a fun athlete to watch as she finished 3rd 100 meter dash (3rd best Hawk History) and 5th in the long jump. How bout Freshman  Macie Paredez who finished 8th place in the 1600 meter run but her time placed 6th place in Hawk’s All-Time list and 5th place for the 3200 meter run.

     Let’s Go Fast~High~Long~ Hawks!

The Lake had 3 who placed in the Pole Vault which was a first in Hawk history.
(Shana Curter~~Grindle~~Katelyn Lowth)

The 4×100 relay already lowered their time past the 50 second mark as well as individuals like Avey who reached 45.53 seconds which was approximately where she finished her season last year.

Hannah (put the Hammer down) in her distance events as she prepares to finish higher than her 4th place finish at the Region IV Meet a year earlier.

     Canyon Lake ‘Hawk’ Proud!

Tessa Jones won her JV 300 meter hurdle event and came home with over 14 points (not counting any relays) and Trinity Jones finished 3rd in two events (400m~high jump) garnering 12 points (not counting relays).

Oberholtzer scored in all 5 of her events she entered and had a Hawk best 12.17 100 meter dash a good 3 tenths of a second better than Alysha Perez back during her 2017 season.

Freshman Harley Hamilton (2:14.03) scored a first place finish in his 800 meter run which put him right outside the Top 10 listing with an 11th place finish.

Senior Luke Jeckell’s first place 400 meter dash (51.59) is good for 4th place on the All-Time Top 10 List in that event.

Finish 2nd in a Two-Day Tourney against several 5A & 6A Schools! Go Lake!

Canyon Lake has a chance to, ‘go where no other Hawk Team has ever gone before’ as this year’s Boys Golf team made a big statement in a two day event that had several larger schools participating.

“Our Varsity Boys Golf completed in the Concan Boys Invitational at Rio Valley Ranch Golf Club over the weekend,” Head Coach Ryan Garney relayed excitedly. “Over the 2 day Tournament the boys finished 2nd overall. Some of the best 6A and 5A schools from around the state competed.”

The five some golfers were Roger Rodriquez, Jacob Tuckness, Tristen Evans, James Cornell, and Trey Rasor.

The Lake were led by Rodriques who finished 7th overall with a score of 73 on Friday ad an 80 on Saturday for a two day score of, 153.

Tuckness finished 10th shooting a 77 & 81 for 158 score….Evans finished 15th with an overall score of 162 (84 first day/78 second day).

                         Way to Go Lake!!

This was a first for The Lake to place at this prestigious tourney….much less placing at the 2nd School Overall.

Consistency is a major ingredient in every sport but golf that consistency is at a premium for a team that has 5 individuals playing as a team.

“Our kids have been up and down all year but this was some of the best golf they’ve played,” Coach Garney birdied. “These were good schools we beat. Normally we get beat pretty bad but this group is playing well.

Lady Hawk’s Junior Varsity finish 2nd at Pieper Tournament! Way to Go Lake!

The Hawk Ladies had a decent outing this past week also, “Our Girls took 2nd place at the Pieper JV Invitational at Rebecca Creek,” Coach Garney glowed. “Our girls were led by Kailey Morgan, Caledonia Beatty, Chayce Standifer, Trinity Turner and Reese Dawley.”

Coach Garney continued, “It was great to get these girls some experience and realize they enjoy playing good. Several of the girls had never played a full 18 hole tournament and it was exciting to see them have so much fun and bring some hardware home. I hope this sparks a desire to get even better.”

Some good happenings as Golf starts to raise The Lake. Just be careful and not let it get too high…a water hole is hard enough.

Aubrey Long pitched a No-No & added a CenterField Homer for extra sauce! Go Lake!

Pitcher Aubrey Long in earlier game this season.

The Canyon Lake Hawk’s Softball started their Blanco Tournament with dominating pitching while combining these two games garnering 23 hits…pretty good balance for an extraordinary evening.

Aubrey Long had a decent night in the circle after pitching a No-Hitter in CL’s first game against Natalia who were not able to get any traction with many of the Hawk faithful getting some nice wind fans from all of the Mustangs missed pitches.

In fact, Long did not reach 3 balls in the count and struck out 10 Mustangs in this dominant outing.

“I had not been given many innings so I really have not had time to build everything,” Long said when asked bout her time in the circle.

‘Hit’ it LONG then commented on her home run, “The umpire came to the circle and said I had 8 minutes unless you can get out of this (inning) quick…so I said I need to hit because I was the first one up  (next in the lineup) and I had been really bad so I was going to step back and wait on it (the pitch) because all of her pitches had been outside and low and I felt like she was going to give me one…and I knew it was gone.”

Gone it was as the center fielder just watched the ball sail over her past the outfield fence. There were reports that the air traffic control in San Antonio had seen a UFO blip on their screen durning that same time.

Be Authentic with your Hawk Gear & GO LAKE SOFTBALL

Still some pesky Hawk errors but as a whole, on this night, The Lake’s Softball team was in a zone in every facet of this game resulting in two dominating victories.

The Hawks will continue their Blanco Tourney on Friday & Saturday with hopes of spotting more UFO’s (Unbelievable~Fluid~Offense)…

                          Hawks gather after opening day spanking of Devine, 11-0. Go Lake!

Canyon Lake came out of their chute with some degree of authority by amassing 13 hits (3 doubles) and in that 1st inning leaving the bases loaded. It was a spanking with their only blemish coming in the field with two miscues and leaving the bases loaded with-out a run scored.

The ReSporter was able to catch up with Head Girls Soccer Coach Kara Stracener after tying a top 10 team, Wimberley which will be a great momentum builder as well helping solidify another chance of making the playoffs.

The Lake’s Lady Soccer team presently has the longest running playoff streak compared to Blake’s other team sports. These Texan’s are averaging 4 goals per outing which gives an idea of how well this Hawk team is starting to jell.

Hit Man way to get rid of Pests Hawks!

“Our girls are undefeated so far in district and continue to improve each game,” Coach Stracener started.  “We are 8-3-3 on the season and  had a 2^nd place finish in our first tournament of the season.”

Canyon Lake has strung together some impressive outings, “We had a big win against 6A Canyon High School right before we started district and just tied Wimberley who is a top ranked team in 4A soccer in the region,” Stracener blushed. 

“We knew that Wimberley was going to be a tough game as they had just come off of a win against Davenport, one of the top ranked teams in the area.  As far as our game plan, we had 3 things we were focusing on going into the Wimberley game.”  

           Make a Deposit & Go Hawks!!

“The girls executed the plan very well.   They did really well with 2 out of the 3.  We struggled on the offensive side of things because Wimberley has a strong defense and put pressure on us much more quickly than any team we’ve seen this year.  I am very pleased with how the girls battled and frustrated Wimberley,” Coach Stracener said realizing that the Texan’s have given up just 5 goals this season out of 15 contests.  “We played great team defense and outworked a very good team.”

Things don’t get any easier as this district is always tough and represents good outings during the post-season.

“We will continue to build on the momentum from the positive outcome from last Friday going into this week where we finish up the first round of district against two more solid teams, Marble Falls Tuesday at home and Friday away at Davenport.” 

Coach Stracener shared bout this year’s offense, “Girls with top offensive stats are Savanna Oberholtzer with 21 goals so far on the season.  Then Rya Clark and Kylee Morrow, 2^nd and 3^rd in goals scored for the team.”

Canyon Lake is still a young outfit and look to raise the bar as this season continues to mature.

“Our 3 seniors on the team, make up 3 out of the 4 defenders in the back. Their experience and leadership has been outstanding for the team this year and kept us in some tough games.  Sophomore goal keeper, Callie Dominguez (was a defender for us last year), has stepped up and made some great saves and continues to improve,” Starcener closed with hopes of keeping this district slate in good shape.
