The ReSporter is waiting for the Games to Begin after almost 2 weeks of cold and rainy weather.

Kelsey Ahrens will be biting at the bit as she waits for District 26-4A to get going

Bad news is that no matter what the weather is doing the district schedule will be here, ready or not.

“We are still working out and hitting in the cages and other than not practicing after school today and we are staying active,” Head Coach John Gallagher said. “You can’t simulate a live game and that is what we need. I have scheduled a game for us on Friday so that will give us some needed work before we start district next Tuesday.”

Not that long ago, Canyon Lake did not need to field a Junior Varsity team since they did not have enough players to warrant such an act.

Y4 Custom Homes Supports Hawk JV Softball

Last year, the Hawks fielded their first full season JV team and did not find much success.

Yes, there was a good reason for that showing…CL had four freshman playing on the varsity.

Those players would have made all the difference in last seasons final record if the Varsity did not need those freshman playing.

This game with Fredericksburg shows how far this sport has progressed as Canyon Lake came back from an early deficit to win going away, 10-6 in a timed affair.

Addison Ray pitched a gem while giving up just one earned run as she only threw strikes in her last two innings.

Canyon Lake run ruled Fredericksburg with an 11 run fifth inning turning the tide for an impressive win over nemesis Billies, 16-6 on Wednesday night at the Hawk diamond.

Junior Kirsten Jones thinking about her slap hitting

“We committed way too many mental mistakes early but our presence of mind to start hitting the ball and scoring in those late innings shows that this team is not out of it (any game),” Head Coach John Gallagher stated. “Their confidence grew when the Billies put a new pitcher in the game.”

All but one Hawk got a hit, all but two Hawks got a run batted in and all but two Hawks scored a run as CL spread the wealth up and down their line-up in that last inning.

Kirsten Jones had several slap happy hits and her first was placed beautifully right over third base. Jones did the trick again on a slap bunt right to the left side of the pitcher for another single giving CL a ton of confidence and kept the inning alive.

“I wanted to pull through for the team,” Jones said with a smile that would not quit. “It had been hard putting those balls down and I am glad I did it in this game.”

“We were letting each other know that we had the talent and time to come back,” Jones said when responding on the mood of the team when Fredericksburg took the lead on the 3-Run Home Run.

Canyon Lake was one run down (6-5) when they came to bat in what turned out to be the last inning.

Eleven runs later the Umpire raised his hand signaling, ballgame, after a wall scraper triple off the bat of Kelsey Ahrens.

After losing their first game of the season, the Hawks found themselves down by 5 runs in the second game of the day and last game in the Navarro tournament.

Canyon Lake then proceeded to rally on their next at bat and forged to the lead and game, 11-7 against Pearsall.

The win gave CL five out of six games as they finished fourth overall for the weekend.

CL had several good happenings for their first tournament of the season.

“I would have been happy with a split,” Head Coach John Gallagher said when responding if he was happy with the five wins for the weekend. “We finally started hitting today and we have some very good chemistry with this team.”

Canyon Lake relied on Alexis Robinson for pitching as she started four of the six contests.

In that final game with Pearsall, the Hawks went with Freshman Lauren Mentzer in the circle as she works through some arm trouble and Mentzer found it hard to get through the second inning.

Enter Robinson once again to help stop the bleeding for an inning that had several errors and costly runs for Pearsall.

Canyon Lake continued their streak to four wins at the Navarro tournament on Friday as the Hawks beat Amarillo High and John Paul II.

Kelsey Ahrens continues to shine with several other Hawk players in Navarro

“We are playing together a lot more and our chemistry is very good,” Head Coach John Gallagher said. “Amarillo had good pitching and we got our runs early and just moved people with our hits and bunts.”

The Hawks are hitting .370 as a team as this season is beginning much like last year’s club did with hits and finding ways to win those tight games.

Canyon Lake also had a first when Alexis Robinson relieved Freshman pitcher Lauren Mentzer for two innings for the win and first save by a pitcher for CL since Softball started in 2008 season.

“That is always good to get a first,” Coach Gallagher chimed. “Mentzer looked good and sharp and we hope to get her some more work.”

Robinson not only pitched well but her bat came alive as she finished with a double and home run in her two games.

Canyon Lake started their season with two wins as Harper and St. Anthony were victims at the Navarro Tournament.

Kelsey Ahrens got the year going strong with 3 rbi’s in her game with Harper, while Kirsten Jones and Kat Weber each had two hits.

The Hawks held on in this timed game as Harper struck for two runs to close the gap but it was still not enough as Canyon Lake held on for their first win.

Robinson pitched 8 strike outs allowing just two hits in the win.

In the Hawks second game, the power game was evident as Canyon Lake scored 7 runs in the top of the fourth inning to wrestle the lead and coast to their win over St. Anthony.

Kelsey Ahrens had a double while Robinson and Dubois both reached base with triples.

The Hawks totaled 11 hits and finished the day with those two wins.
