Canyon Lake Girl’s Basketball finished their Lampasas tournament with two losses on Saturday as they now look forward to District 27-3A action.

The Hawks went back to some troubling habits in those losses with that main habit coming in the form of turnovers.

CL had 25 and 32 turnovers with those two losses which turned out to be almost a larger number than points scored in those two contests.

Having enough able bodies was also a downfall for Canyon Lake as Hannah St. John was out with an injury giving the Hawks only eight players to finish out their last two games.

Taking care of the ball will have to be a major item needed to be rectified going into district play while also using this next off week getting more players healthy.

Saturday’s opponents gave Canyon Lake an idea of what type of teams they have coming up on their schedule.

Navarro and Boerne will certainly emulate those games with athletes that can pressure and get easy baskets.

The Lady Hawks had a win and loss in action at the Lampasas Tournament Friday.

CL had their seven game winning streak halted in the first game against Lorena, 37-22.

Canyon Lake did not score in double digits in any quarter and seemed to be still asleep in the morning game.

“We played lazy and unenthusiastic,” Head Coach Mary Beth Gallagher said.

None of the CL players made it to double digit scoring in the contest as the team could only score nine points in the second half.

Canyon Lake righted their ship in the next game when they beat Austin Crockett, 52-41.

The Hawks had nine players score in this game and Katie Williams pitched in with a double-double. It was her fifth double-double this season for Williams.

Williams finished with 21 points and 10 rebounds.

“We bounced back and took the lead early and never let them (Crockett) get close,” Coach Gallager said. “Katie had a great game in the second game. I spoke with her prior to the game and challenged her to do better and she did.”

Amber Ramsey had a pair of eights in points and rebounds.

Canyon Lake will play Lampasas Saturday morning with the tip off at 9:30am.

Coaches Corner with Mary Beth Gallagher

The ReSporter: Give us an idea of how you ended up with two week’s off this year?

Coach Gallagher: “Last year at this time we had already played two district games and thinking that would be the case this season left us scrambling for games. We did not realize until it was too late to schedule games. We called a lot of schools and did get our last two with Pleasanton and Devine.”

The ReSporter: What might be some benefits for this long of a layoff?

Coach Gallagher: “This break will actually help us as these girls will have time to study and do better in their classes. The break will also give us some scrimmages and conditioning. The girls worked hard especially in our scrimmages already this week.”

The ReSporter: Tell us about this Tournament in Lampasas?

Coach Gallagher: “We will have a four team pod system and will be guaranteed at least three games in two days and maybe four.”

The ReSporter: Who are the teams and what do you mean ‘Maybe’ four games?

Canyon Lake’s quest for another playoff team will continue through this Winter and Spring.

Right now you have two promising scenarios with the Hawk Basketball programs.

The Girls and Boys teams have a legitimate chance to snag a T-Shirt company this coming season with help to design such a shirt.

Soccer has been tough to garner a playoff spot since this sport has been dominated by much larger schools since these teams play in a different district than CL’s other sports.

Because of a reduced number of teams that play that sport, the UIL combines 3A schools with 4A schools to crown a champion in Soccer each year.

The same is true for Canyon Lake’s Swimming team in having a district with larger schools. Another fact is that the Hawk Swimming program is still in it’s infancy stage and that makes competing in this tougher venue doubly hard.

Swimming also is much like Track and Field where playoffs are based on individuals in each event advancing instead of a Team getting in a bus for their next round of events after a District crowns a champion.

Canyon Lake has a few teams that have not had a chance to compete after a district race yet.

CL Hawks Boys and Girls Basketball Week’s Recap

The Canyon Lake Ladies have had another successful week in hoopsville.

Since our last recap, CL Girls have won a tournament and both single games last week over Devine and Pleasanton.

This team is now on a seven game winning streak which is a high water mark for this school.

In our last wrap up ‘Percentages’ was talked about and here is what the Hawks had two weeks ago compared to today:

 Team Total                      Shots       3Point       Free Throws
 Percentages Two Weeks Ago      36.7%        32.9%        39.2%
 Percentages Now                33.4%        31.4%        42.8%

All those percentages have gone down except for Canyon Lake’s free throws.

Shooting is important, but this team relies on three other items that have resulted in their bottom line: Winning.

Defense has been top notch throughout in all their games thus far. That one result can cover a multitude of shortcomings in a game. This Hawk team is a testament to that truism.

Another positive is how much the Hawks are cutting down on those pesky turnovers. Every time a turnover is avoided will give Canyon Lake another chance to score.

One more positive this team possesses is their knack for offensive rebounding. That one stat will allow that shooting percentage to actually be higher than it shows.

Canyon Lake averages right at 14 offensive rebounds per game which might be their most important number in that stat box.

Confidence is sprouting with each win and the emergence of Sophomore Kyndall Drum will pay dividends when district starts.

Bracken Christian Lady Warriors beat New Braunfels Christian, 14-7 in the second quarter, but lost the game last Friday night at the Warriors gym.

The Warriors (4-5) were basically out played by one Wildcat that went wild scoring over 50 points in this contest.

BCS did close the gap in the second quarter to seven points, 17-23 as this scrappy group of Lady Warriors outscored New Braunfels with 12 unanswered points helping to close the gap.

The Wildcats then got wild for the remainder of this game outscoring BCS, 39-14 in the second half.

Lorena Martinez finished in double figures with 11 points and Micaela Michael controlled the boards finishing with 11 and one block.

A repeat of that second quarter for the game and BCS will put a scare or win against any team.

Canyon Lake (13-2) takes care of business in win over Pleasanton, 48-25 last Friday night on the road.

The Hawks have now won seven games in a row for the first time in CL history.

Katie Williams was the only Hawk in double figures scoring with 16 while Amber Ramsey and Kyndall Drum both pitched in with eight points a piece.

Seven CL players got into the scoring column in this game as the Hawks are now 11 games over .500 which is also a new standard never reached before.

This was also the eighth game that CL has kept their opponent under 30 points in a game.

For the season CL’s defense is giving up just 34 points per contest.
