Canyon Lake is down to a one game season on Saturday an Noon after loosing to La Vernia, 6-2 at Steele High School in a best of three series.
“We have got to hit better and get contact,” Head Coach John Gallagher stated. “We are not seeing good pitches…..with what I saw, I was happy with our defense.”
Marley Carrizales enters into the playoffs with a .571 batting average.
Canyon Lake did not finish well as the Hawks lost in all three facets of their game against Fredericksburg, 6-4 for a seeding game in Boerne.
Now CL will have a date this Friday with La Vernia at Steele High School with a game time of 7:00pm.
Carley Dubois at her signing for UofH Victoria earlier this year
Canyon Lake had another Athlete sign for a chance of furthering their sports career, when Carley Dubois signed her letter of intent earlier this year with the University of Houston-Victoria.
The Jaguars have a good team and adding a player like Dubois will certainly be a benefit as you can’t teach speed and that is an asset UH-V will be getting with this signing.
Senior Carley Dubois is ready for a run in the Playoffs!!
Now the fun times begin as Canyon Lake will have an opportunity to have a good opponent to do battle with before facing the 2nd or 3rd seeded team in District 27-4A.
La Vernia is ranked in some polls as they have a decent record of, 24-4-1 and CL can vouch for how tough the Bears can be after spending two years in the same district.

Canyon Lake has the 3rd seed all wrapped up after a loss to Fredericksburg, 6-5 on Tuesday night with just one more game left in the regular season.
If Fredericksburg can beat Boerne on Friday then they will have the 2nd seed all to themselves and the Hawks will need a loss for a coin flip in finding out their destiny when the playoff curtain is raised.
Canyon Lake’s Softball team will be the 6th program to make the playoffs this season.
Having 5 district teams has been a big contributor but there was only one of those teams that made the dance as a 4th seed.
The Softball team will either enter the playoffs as a 2nd or 3rd seed. The Hawks will be paired with District 27-4A schools in those first round affairs, which comprise Wimberley, La Vernia, Navarro, Gonzales, and Eastside Memorial.
Maggie Banks puts a no-hitter on resume in win over Hondo
The Hawk’s kicked the Owls out of their nest with a resounding no-hit win, 11-0 on Thursday night that kept this young club on the inside track for a, 2nd place District 28-4A finish.
“The girls played a great game with no let down in intensity after a tough loss in Boerne, Head Coach John Gallagher stated. “Maggie Banks pitched a gem backed by some solid defensive plays.”
With a week left in the regular season, Canyon Lake will now set their sights on a game in Fredericksburg on Tuesday. A victory will solidify that 2nd seed for the playoffs as the Hawks will finally get a playoff game on their resume.
It has been 5 years since the Softball contingent was in the playoffs and after a complete game win over Hondo, the Hawks had all parts of their game in sync with no errors, plenty of offense, and a pitching performance that had the visitors getting no hits.

A Boerne home-run knocked the Hawks into a fight for 2nd place in District 28-4A after a loss to the front runner Greyhounds, 6-5.
Canyon Lake had the lead from the first inning to a one out 7th inning when a bases loaded home run finished the game in grand style for the home team.
