The Hawk Ladies beat up on the Badgers this past Tuesday with a 10 point victory improving their record to 5-4 for this young season winning, 48-38.

   Go Hawks

“This was a good win for us,” Head Coach Zach Burleson started. “Lampasas is a tough place to play and to be able to come out with a win is good.”

Alexa Ramos was everywhere as this ever-ready battery lady was non-stop scoring 16 points with 7 steals and dishing out 4 assists.

“Alexa Ramos had a real good night slashing to the basket,” Head Coach Zach Burleson surmised. “It was her best as far at that goes.”

Not a bad days work as Ramos would harness 7 rebounds to finish out her effort in Badger country.

Young Life says        Go Hawks

Canyon Lake has now been immersed with the Basketball Season as football and volleyball teams have been eliminated in tournament play and that immersion can also be seen with some swimming in this week’s schedule.

This has been a part of the season that would usually not hold out for a lot of exciting times around the area but both Girls and Boys Basketball teams have already shown that this might be a good year for giving these athletes a perusal as in previous seasons.

                          Junior Reagan Heun scores 27 points in win over Somerset

Canyon Lake came out of their tough week-end tournament and dominated Somerset Bulldogs with a convincing 14 point advantage in the 3rd quarter in coasting to even their record winning, 50-37.

Regan Heun scored 27 points in this contest as the Hawks needed to run their air conditioner on the bus on the ride home to help cool off the team.

There is something about Somerset that has Reagan’s Sun Rising as she scored 26 points during her freshman year and now has an all time scoring high by one point.

Canyon Lake Girl’s Basketball went into the tall trees this past week as they participated in the San Antonio ISD Basketball Tournament.

Those tall trees came in the form of 5A and 6A schools and the Hawks had a 1-3 showing for this 3 day event.

The SAISD tourney started with a top 5 ranked El Paso Burges team that beat CL, 61-37 on Thursday.

Head Coach Zach Burleson was optimistic after the 4 game experience, “If we play like we are capable, then we can play with anybody.”

The games showed some inconsistencies, but in playing larger classification schools you will certainly be helped as this season progresses.

Lainee Moses in earlier game with Lehman as JV 1 Hawks are still unscathed.

Winning ways continue for this year’s JV-1 squad as they finished off the Wimberley Texans in grand fashion, 42-36.

That score makes this game seem much closer than it actually was as the Hawks controlled this contest from the opening tip to that final horn.

Caroline Kullberg led all scorers with 18 points which was just off being half of the teams points.

The Hawk pressure had the Texans’ with a multitude of turnovers which is saying something given that Canyon Lake was also a frequent visitor to the turnover whistle with 31 for the game.

CL had foul trouble throughout the game which was a contributing factor in how this game finished with a 6 point win as Wimberley had the lead once, 3-2 at the 6 minute mark in that first quarter.

Alexa Ramos, Emily McDonald, and Reagan Heun after Win over Texans

Wimberley lost their grip in loss to Canyon Lake as the Hawks won for the first time since February 9, 2010. This win was the first victory on the Texan’s home turf, 51-49.

That was the year your Hawks qualified for the playoffs in their second year of competition. That win was needed to get their ticket punched for those fun games.

“I am really pleased with our effort as Wimberley forced us out of our comfort zone,” Head Coach Zach Burleson surmised. “We had so many opportunities in that 4th Quarter to knock them down and increase our lead but this game showed we took a step in the right direction.”

That direction is becoming a straighter Backbone for this edition of Canyon Lake Lady Hawks.

Head Girl’s Basketball Coach Zach Burleson

The ReSporter: Well, you had your first week of games….what is your overall feeling bout this years group of girls?

Coach Burleson: “Well we have seen some positive things. We are getting more comfortable with each other and with what we want to do.”

The ReSporter: You have been short handed to start this year’s games, when do you expect to be with a full squad?

Coach Burleson: “It’s always a fluid situation. Lineups will change, not necessarily because someone isn’t playing well, but more due to us just needing to see how a particular group plays together. Injuries will also happen, so we need to be prepared to play with multiple lineups.”

   Reagan Heun in earlier game with Lehman holding on in this non-contact sport. 

Canyon Lake evened their record to 1-1 after a win on Friday night against Johnson City, 45-23.

The Hawks have yet to field their full line-up as Reagan Heun was held out for precautionary reasons in this match-up.

On the flip side, CL did have the return of Alexa Ramos, Sarah Russell, and Emily McDonald which made up for Heun’s absence in this win.

Those three players combined for 28 points which would have been enough points for this victory.

The start of Sub-Varsity Girls Basketball was on full throttle last Tuesday night as these two teams swept the Lehman Lobos at the Hawk Nest.

The ReSporter could only attend one game but seeing some of the JV 1 squad game the Hawk enthusiasts would certainly noticed a difference with the level of play as this Hawk team walloped the Lobos, 48-31.

Head JV 1 Coach Jimmy Chamberlin when asked after the game about this Hawk team said, “We scored points,” with a broad smile seen from ear to ear.

In past campaigns, Canyon Lake has struggled to score 48 points in multiple games added together and this exhibition showed again on how talented this group of Freshman girls have been.
