        Go Hawks & Beat the Texans!

The Lake set the table with an early release (mercy win) over Bandera in their, 9-0 game last Friday which now sets up another battle this Tuesday with Wimberley. These two schools have already clinched a post-season invite.

A battle of top 6 teams according to two Texas Polls. The Texans are ranked first in MaxPreps snd The Lake coming in with a 4th place ranking.

While these two schools fight for the top district spot those other District 26-4A Schools have 4 teams battling it out for those last two playoff spots.

                 Congrats Lake Soccer!

Right now Davenport (13 pts) leads presently and Long Creek (12 pts), Fredericksburg (10 pts) and Marble Falls (5 pts) looking for a good week to get in that running.

Canyon Lake will have a pivotal meeting against the Texans after losing, 3-1 during that first round. CL did have a one goal lead at halftime but let that second stanza get away with them as Wimbo took advantage of 3 penalty kicks leading to that loss.

Last week’s Bandera win put your Hawks at 16 wins tying their 2021 & 2024 season totals and breaking that milestone against a highly ranked opponent would put this team in rarefied air to put it lightly.

Make history Hawks and with the table being set it is now time to dine.

Let’s Go Lake!

                             Let’s GO LAKE!

Canyon Lake kept their hold on second place in District 26-4A after sweeping through last week’s contests that included the last & first game of round play.

Both wins were significant in getting a win over Davenport (2-1) the first in 3 games and taking care Fredericksburg (3-1) last Friday sweeping the Billies.

The Lake has an all-time 15-10-4 record and will continue this week at Bandera on Friday.

In CL’s contest with Freddie, was a fast start with 3 goals scored during the first 17 minutes of that first half and gave up one goal the second stanza at the 35 minute mark but held serve the rest of this game and win, 3-1.

                             GO LAKE!

It was a Bella Biasatti ~ Savanna Oberholtzer volley with each player either scoring or giving the other an assist.

That first goal had a flawless pass by Callie Dominguez to Biasatti to Oberholtzer that gave Canyon Lake a lead they would never relinquish at the 38:45 mark.

Two more goals at the 32 & 23 minute would give The Lake a dominating first half of action.

It was that second half the Billies would continued to press but CL’s back row with newcomer Cierra Marsh continued turning back those Freddie attacks and an eventual win.

                          Break the Dam~ Lake!

The rankings below show just how hard it is for entities to be able to grasp schools that play 500 miles from each other with few common opponents for the eye test.

One ranking now has just Wimberley 3rd and CLHS 6th with 3 of those district foes falling past that 25th spot. Certainly a result of battling each other with a loss or win and sliding in rankings.

There is one other 4A district with 2 schools being highly ranked with a fall out with those other schools in that same district.

Right now the point totals have Wimberley leading with 21 points while The Lake reaching 18 points. As for the rest of this group of teams has 4 schools fighting for those other 2 spots in hopes of making the playoffs.

Davenport        10  points
Long Creek        9  points
Fredericksburg    7  points
Marble Falls      5  points

This shows how close these 4 schools are for making or missing post-season.

As for Canyon Lake? A playoff clinching game is right around the corner.
Way to GO LAKE!

        Way to Make us Proud Hawks!

Canyon Lake took care of business after suffering their first and only loss this year against Wimberley.

The Lake followed that showing beating Long Creek (4-0) and Marble Falls (3-0) in this past week of action. These past two battles now has CLHS alone in 2nd Place in a district loaded with quality opponents.

There is one last district game in the first round this Tuesday as securing 4 spots for the playoffs will be an all out brawl with all but one school eliminated. (unless Bandera goes undefeated….)

This past week had Fredericksburg beating Davenport (1-0) which presented a scenario for the Billies making a move to be one of those 4 teams.

                 Way to Go Lake Soccer!

Marble Falls continues to search for a win and will need to turn their two ties into wins for a chance to get back into this dogfight.

The Lake will finish their first round against an always tough Davenport team that are smarting with that loss to the Billies with a pronounced chip on their shoulder.

With a win, Davenport, could move to 3rd place or a Hawk win leaving the Wolves tied for 4th place with Freddie.

The Hawks need to keep pressing for another chance to dethrone the Texans on the road in two weeks.

Yes, a lot of scenarios as this last half of district play gets going on Friday. Teams being in a wait and watch to see results on how those schools move up or down on this roller-coaster ride.
Let’s Go Lady Hawks!!

Time for (some Jethro Bodine) deciphering after first week of The Lake’s Ladies Soccer escapades.

The two polls below have been released and Canyon Lake went down from #1 to #2 in the Girls Coaches Association Poll. This is despite The Hawks winning their only contest in convincing fashion over Fredericksburg, 4-1.

Girls Coaches Association Poll
1) Celina           7-1-1
2) Canyon Lake     10-0-0
3) Life Waxahachie 14-0-1
4) Wimberley       10-1-1
5) Salado          12-1-0

The MaxPreps Poll:
1) Wimberley       10-1-1
2) Celina           7-1-1
3) Life Waxahachie 14-0-1
4) Canyon Lake     10-0-0
5) Davenport        9-2-0

Davenport (1-1) and Marble Falls (0-2) made the furtherest drop this week where Davy is now 19th after losing to the Texans and the Mustangs completely dropped form the top 25 list. What seems odd is MFalls dropped with a one goal loss to Wimbo (0-1) and newbie Long Creek.

           Congrats Lake Lady Hawk’s Soccer! 

So these high rankings seem to still be in a ‘we don’t really know’ time of season.

Long Creek put their name in the hat when they shut-out Marble Falls posing another school ready to make a mark.

It’s simple knowing that a district as loaded as CL’s has potential of seeing all these teams drop if their circular firing squad with District 26-4A schools beating each other with each week of battles.

The ReSporter would put more confidence in the MaxPreps Poll as that seems more in tune as a power poll and not based on opinions like the Coaches Poll.

         Way to Make us Proud Hawks!

Time will tell as this week The Lake will have Senior night this Tuesday when they welcome Bandera to the Hawk Nest and then this Friday will be a showdown playing Wimberley in a battle between two top 4 opponents.

The Lake tied Wimberley in both of their outings last season for a team who played on the Final Four last season.

Having all four schools getting to a Regional Semi-Final round that would have District 26-4A teams playing in a final four semi-round.

Should be a fun run to March when the best rise to the top.

GO LAKE & Flatten them like our Pancakes!

Canyon Lake started district play with a win over Fredericksburg, 4-1 for their 10th straight victory.

Last year, The Lake, came into this first contest with the Billies with a lot of confidence opening at home.

That start was a tied battle at 2 goals which led to two more ties (against Wimberley) during district part of their schedule.

CL’s district added Long Creek which results in a 12 game uphill battle as all but one school (Bandera) presently has a .500 or better record.

The Lady Hawks Soccer has had an impressive run during Head Coach Kara Stracener’s 6th years at the helm.

Authentic Canyon Lake says Go Lake & Don’t Forget Valentine’s Day!

With two campaigns reaching 16 wins while already matching CL’s 10 wins during 2023 season. In Stracener’s 6 years she had raked in 80 wins with 43 losses that comes to a .642 winning percentage.

Head Coach Stracener commented bout the Fredericksburg win, “It was a good win to start district. We Struggled to control the game, but obviously were able to convert some of our chances into goals…We were challenged more defensively than we have been all season, so I’m proud of our defense for shutting down Fred’s attack.”

The Lake has ordered a lot more hangers to show off many firsts this season thus far that now has a ten game winning streak but as Coach Stracener commented on seeing a tougher defense with the Billies, then with more schools still to see in a district that presently have 3 teams in the Top 5 and 4 in the Top 10 it is apparent more challenges will be forthcoming.

                  Congrats Lady Hawks!

Savanna Olberholtzer led the team with 3 goals while Bella Biasatti recorded 2 assists and a goal and Senior Jordan Villareal produced an assist to finish the scoring.

Goalkeeper Liza Schexnayder and defender Chylea Gray were rewarded players of the game in this win.

Canyon Lake will be off this Friday and then open their district home schedule next Tuesday February 3rd against Bandera starting at 7:00pm.

The Lake is treading in water that has not been seen by any Hawk sport since the school started after being recognized in one poll as the #1 team in the state.

But with that caveat you will be seeing tough district play each week that has 3 other schools also hanging with impressive resumes to show-off to their fans. Sooo buckle up and Go Lake!

                          Plug those Leaks Lake!

Canyon Lake will have a frigid start to district play this Tuesday against an always tough Fredericksburg Billies squad.

But for this season thus far, The Hawks, have been hot with their longest winning streak and starting district play undefeated.

The schools in The Lake’s district have garnered an impressive resume and Fredericksburg will be a good indicator as Freddie’s four losses have come against teams that have a combined 29-9-4 record which gives an idea of how this will be an all out road war.

                 Go Lake Beat Freddie!

In fact, this district will have several evenings without a win just by walking out on the soccer field of play.

The top 4 District 26-4A schools have a combined 33-2-3 (.908) non-district record and have accumulated 174 goals while allowing an anemic 22 before district gets going this week to their opponents.

Need more? Wimberley has played the toughest schedule (.711), Davenport (.571), Marble Falls (.514)  and The Lake (.500).

                   Way to GO HAWKS!

The ReSporter had a chance of catching up with Coach Kara Stracener for her thoughts as CLake enters their next phase of the season.

The ReSporter: Across the board what does it mean to this program to finish undefeated after non district games?

Coach Stracener: “I think this is the first time we’ve been undefeated going into district play which is exciting.  We have been playing well and improving every time we step on the field.  Every season will bring adversity, and the girls know that and are prepared for what our tough district will bring!”

The ReSporter:  And did you get what you wanted in preparation for district? 

Coach Stracener: “I think I would have liked to have seen some tougher teams           because our district has some of the best in 4A in the state, but going into district playing with confidence is also important.”  

                            Go Lake!

The ReSporter: This is ‘hands down’ the toughest district in the State at any classification. Do you have nightmares before each battle?

Coach Stracener: “I think this is one of the best Canyon Lake teams I’ve coached, so it just shows you that all the teams in our district are improving as we improve.  Iron sharpens iron, so each game is always a battle, but it will prepare those lucky enough to make it into the top 4, which is our goal.”

The ReSporter: And if you have sane moments…what gives you those thoughts when thinking about this team? 

Coach Stracener: “I don’t have nightmares…just have remind myself that this is a game, and we play because we love it and the competition is exciting.  But at the end of the day, it’s a blessing to get to compete.  Not everyone gets to do this…”

A much needed Hawk Volleyball Sweep last week that has one more beatable Bandera this Tuesday on the road. Sweeping the first 3 games would put this year’s Volleyball team on an inside track for a post-season bid. The first round of district opponents will conclude with the two powerhouse programs with Davenport being first on that list this Friday at the Hawk Nest.

Football goes into their 2nd district battle Friday when Those Battlin Billies come to the Hawk Nest. Last year Canyon Lake started their battle against Fredericksburg on fire but fizzled out from the 2nd quarter on…with only one score.

The Billies were more efficient and got a win which had your Hawks playing catch-up for the remainder of district play. Freddie would need to lose twice which happened the last game.

That allowed Canyon Lake to win a 3-way tie breaker sweepstakes which gave The Lake a first round home playoff against Austin Travis.

A primary goal for that same scenario this time around and you can go to The ReSporter’s Football Standings article to see what is happening with the Bi-District round district in Austin is faring.

Cross Country District will be next week in Bandera.

                    CL Hawks won the trenches in win over JFK, Way to GO LAKE!

                         Let’s Go Lake!

Canyon Lake gets down to business as district schedule continues into November and this week Fredericksburg comes calling as a match-up of two district undefeated foes.

Davenport is that third school being undefeated with Somerset started district play with an open date and these Bulldogs will open at Uvalde.

Somerset will make their presence known with just one loss so far and with a tough pre-district slate should be a team fighting for an upper chamber chance of being in that seed in the division.

Davenport will be favored heavily in their match up with the same Rocket team your Hawk’s disposed of last week.

Last year, a Billie/Hawk contest was a mild upset for FHS and that result played out till the end of district play. That had a tie-breaker scenario with Somerset for a chance of seeing where those 3 schools would be placed. CL was 2nd place district finish.

Canyon Lake will welcome the Billies for a chance of being the first opponent to reach 10 losses in CL’s short sports history if they come out with a loss.

The ReSporter has compiled team stats below which can show what strengths and weaknesses with a half-done season. These stats are not absolute but should suffice in showing what each school can produce in game action.

Davenport is ranked 5th in Texas and will be a tough out as they have played a tough schedule without a blemish.

A lot still out there for each team to make their mark and The Lake’s battle with Freddie will be paramount. Each week we will start to make district seeding clearer.

With school enrollment showing on the standings…you can decipher how these top 4 schools will be divided when playoffs begin.  The first two first seeds will have a home field advantage, same as last season, when CL played host to Austin Travis.

         Way to Make us Proud Hawks!

Fall sports will now be entering the district part of their schedules. Tennis has been there for a while and Volleyball will begin at the Hawk Nest this Tuesday against Fredericksburg.

The Standings below give a good snap shot of how teams have formed their resume in preparing for this time of year.

The Lake’s Volleyball has the third best record but as previous years’s have taught this is not a time to hang your chances based on the past. It will be formed by the future knowing that two schools have impressive records against some good competition. (Davenport & Wimberley)

Canyon Lake will be in a battle for two spots knowing that those two schools above taking two post-season spots.

That’s what makes CL’s district schedule with their first three battles being against schools that share those same goals. A Hawk sweep these next 3 games is an essential, need to win, goals with two of those dates on home court.

                          GO HAWKS!

Head Coach Daniella Villarreal parted these words as Volleyball starts up, “We’ve been preparing hard for district, and I thought playing La Vernia right before was a great challenge for us. They’re a very well rounded team that runs a fast offense, and I felt like we battled well. For us, it’s about continuing to sharpen our execution and building momentum to pull out those wins against strong teams like La Vernia.

This group has been working extremely hard and is fully bought into the process of achieving success together. Compared to the past, when we sometimes lacked experience and confidence, this year’s team has both. They’ve competed against all kinds of opponents and know what it takes, so it really comes down to how well we execute together. We’ve also learned how to respond to challenges by running toward them instead of away. The girls have found the courage to be gritty and learned how to overcome obstacles together.

One of our biggest strengths this season is our depth and chemistry. Every player is ready to contribute, no matter their role that night. Each athlete brings value whether it’s on the court or from the bench, and that makes us stronger as a team. These girls care deeply about one another and are always finding ways to help, uplift, and encourage their teammates to succeed.

I’m excited to watch them compete and see their hard work pay off. The competition in our district is tough, but that makes it fun. Every team is playing high level volleyball, and we’ve been working hard to meet that standard and win the big battles. I truly believe in all of these girls as they’re a bright light in my life. They love to learn, they want to improve, and they have fun doing it together. I feel blessed to coach them every day, and I pray they’ll see all of their hard work come to fruition!”

Football finished their non-district schedule on a high note after flying away with an impressive win over Veterans Memorial.

Kudos to both Offensive & Defensive Lines with a strong showing in keeping the Hawk’s QB Jace Wheeler protected and defensively keeping a potent rushing attack by the Patriots and reducing those explosive plays.

                           GO LAKE!

Canyon Lake had a good week last week with Volleyball sweeping their two contests and now has one foe left against an always tough La Vernia (26-8) at the Hawk Nest. These Bears have some impressive wins on their resume and have played and beaten several 5A & 6A schools.

One 4A school Davenport succumbed to this squad twice in a tournament and regular season.

The Lake had a rare 5 set win at Blanco before taking care of Randolph last Friday.

The Hawks will start district play next week with Freddie (Tuesday) and Long Creek (Friday)….these are two winnable games much needed by the Good Gals to get a needed jump in this tough district.

Standings Below:
District 26-4A
Wimberley       29    5   .853
Davenport       24    6   .800
Canyon Lake     16   10   .615
Fredericksburg  12   13   .480
Bandera         13   18   .419
Long Creek       6   16   .273

                       Let’s Go Lake!!!

Looking at these records and who each school played will show the top two being favorites with The Lake and Fredericksburg next in line with Bandera and Long Creek checking out the caboose.

Canyon Lake’s is two wins shy of their total last season and their absence in the post season should not give these Hawks a, we can handle these schools, attitude by not taking all the schools serious on the hard wood. That goes double for Bandera as this school has had the upper hand these past few years.  These Bulldogs have a, 7-3 record this decade against your Hawks.

Top 3 Stats for The Lake’s Volleyball:

ACES                 KILLS                BLOCKS

In Football, The Lake finally got their game in gear in a comeback win over Navarro and this week will go on the road for their first time.

Veterans Memorial team that has won their last two contests by over 31 points. These Patriots opened their season with a no doubt spanking, 51-13 against Davenport as both schools finish their non-district play.

District 13-4A
Davenport       3-0
CL Hawks        2-1
Somerset        2-1
Pleasanton      2-1
Uvalde          2-1
Kennedy         2-1
Fredericksburg  0-3

The Billies are in the same boat as last year when they entered into district play, 0-4 but ended up in playoffs with a win over Canyon Lake. Freddie has played the second toughest schedule behind Davenport going into district.

You notice that 5 schools sporting a, 2-1 slate that will have a wait and see eye-ball calculations before district gets going after this week.

Fall sports start getting interesting in a week when Hawk fans start going to their phones for district results.

Have a Great Week & Let’s Go Lake!
