The ReSporter: What are your overall impressions as you have 3 Meets in the books?

Track and Field Coach Troy Moses

Coach Moses: “I can tell you that we have a bunch of young men that want to improve and they don’t mind working hard to get there. So far we have improved with each performance and that is exciting as we get closer to district.”

The ReSporter: How do you approach a Meet like you had in Dripping Springs when you were one of the smallest schools in attendance?
Coach Moses: “We tell the kids that Track is different than other sports. For us there is only one meet that really counts and that’s the District Meet, all other are just practice meets and we are just competing against ourselves to try to better our times each week. So when you go into a meet like that your really not concerned with what those around you are doing. With that said, I thought our kids preformed out standing against the BIGGER schools.”

The ReSporter: I know you look on how you can maximize your points is that a process that continues until the day of the District Meet? (more…)

            Go Hawks!!

The ReSporter has had fun posting times and distances from other District 26-4A teams for Track & Field these past few years.

So far, The ReSporter has results from all 7 schools with two of those institutions with results with just one meet. That would be Yoakum and La Vernia teams.

As you look at the forms below, you will see the name of the athlete then the school they represent and the date they had their result in the meet.

Another item to take note is that The ReSporter can only get results of athletes that finished 1st through 6th place. As many of the places to research will only have those events that have those times and distances recorded.

Canyon Lake went to Dripping Springs this past Saturday and once again showed promise as this group of athletes raised the bar with their competition.

Last week, the Hawks were matched with Dripping Springs, Hays, and San Marcos schools.

This week the field was larger and when that happens it becomes harder to get in position for scoring points.

What Coaches are looking for when in these situations is how well is that athlete doing in topping their personal bests and that was a win for the Hawks.

High Point for CL’s Girls Varsity was Bailey Drum for the second week in a row with 18.5 points while Emma Gray also reached double digits with 11 points.

Madison Blackburn and Adia Garcia both had 4 points for the Girls Junior Varsity team.

Graduate Mariah Ellis made her mark in more than just one event

The ReSporter: What aspect of this year’s team do you think will be the strongest and why?
Coach Barthels: “I think we will be strong in the hurdles and the relays this year.”

The ReSporter: What about the Field Events?

Coach Barthels: “We have some returning throwers that should get us some points this year and a few Freshman and first year track girls that may help us in the throwing department. Bailey Drum will compete and has a shot at making it to regionals if not state this year in the triple jump. Emma Gray, when basketball season is over should help us in high jump and long/triple jump. Skylar Hurst came on and made it to the area meet in triple jump last year so expectations are that she will also improve this year. Addison Farley has been working on the high jump and long jump and is doing quite well for a first time track athlete as a senior, I am excited to see what she and the others that are new to track can do for our team.”

The ReSporter: Tell us about the Hurdles?

Coach Barthels: “Bailey Drum and Sydney Reibschlaeger should be very competitive this year in both the 100 and 300M hurdles. I only have two other hurdlers so I am working on converting some of the sprinters.”

The ReSporter: Give us your Short Distance (Dash) athletes.

Coach Barthels: “Alysha Perez and Skylar Hurst will compete after good seasons in both the 100 and 200 M Dash. We had some great runners last year with a young JV team and depending on times they may compete this year as Varsity runners or will continue to strive on the JV team. Kaylie Duke, Ashley Shipman, Jasmine Ramos…”

The ReSporter: Can you share anything bout the Long Distance runners? (more…)

Micah St. John looks to help Canyon Lake clear some hurdles.

The ReSporter was able to catch up with Boys Track & Field Head Coach Troy Moses to talk about this upcoming season and expectations.

The ReSporter: What are your overall thoughts on this year’s team?

Coach Moses: “We were very young last year, so I feel this could be a banner year.   If we can stay healthy and develop some points in the field events.”

The ReSporter: You have had an influx of some good looking athletes in these past couple of years what are your aspirations on this group this season?

Coach Moses: “The sky is the limit for this group.   Our goal is to win the District Championship.”

The ReSporter: Your Hurdle students looked very good as the season closed last year. How will you maximize that group and what are your thoughts on Brandon Courtney as he will try to repeat an Austin visit?

Coach Moses: “Our hurdlers are the strength of the team.  We have several young men that have proven to be very competitive.  Courtney had a great sophomore year, I think he has the ability to make it back to Austin in 3 events!!” (more…)
