Hawks Girls Track team finished with 45 points in the Texan Relays on Thursday, March 21 in Wimberley.

Triple Jump seems to be that one event that is the in thing to do. Maybe this has evolved from Marisa Ellis reaching State last season.

If you put all the Triple Jump distances down for District 27-3A competitors, then you would have the following points from this one event:

Place  Name             Distance        Team           Points
 1st   Marisa Ellis       36'4          Hawks            10
 2nd   Singleton          34'7.5        Fredericksburg    8
 3rd   Trena Lorett       33'5          Hawks             6
 4th   Mariah Ells        33'4          Hawks             4
 5th   Shapiro            32'7          Wimberley         2
 6th   Bailey Drum        32'6          Hawks             1
 7th   Halley McKnight    32'4          Hawks

Canyon Lake’s Junior Varsity finished 3rd place beating out several larger schools. (Marble Falls, Lehman, Dripping Springs and other schools.

Canyon Lake has had some good Pole Vaulters in past seasons and this year

Christian Dittman seems to be ready to raise that bar.

Pole Vaulting is one track event that fans are drawn to since it has so many areas an athlete needs to excel in to realize a good result.

Being coordinated to make your pole stick while running with a good amount of speed and then having that ability to accelerate off the ground to push into the air over 13 feet (in this case) in the air.

Dittman was sailing along in Wimberley on Thursday night in clearing 13’6 by what seemed to be one to two feet. Dittman had also made his lower marks by clearing that same bar with ease.

The event steward then moved the bar to 14′ with just three competitors left on this evening.

That height would be a personal record in a meet for Dittman and you could see his determination as he readied himself for his three tries to conquer another rung on this proverbial ladder.

Lady Hawks Tracksters are pretty powerful considering the number of athletes they have participating for the team this season.

Trena Lorett is one of those athletes that would be entered in every event they would let her enter and that is certainly as asset for the Hawks this year.

Unfortunately for CL they only allow five events per meet.

Lorett has been playing Volleyball, Basketball, and every Sport allowed in Track.

Put is this way, if they had Table Tennis, then this young lady would be involved.

“I’m super competitive and driven,” Lorett stated matter of fact. “If I was in the stands watching a sport, then I would want to be out there competing.”

One thing that could be hard for most people is making the switch between sports during the year.

Lorett has that covered, “When I’m playing Volleyball, then I’m playing select Basketball and when I’m playing Basketball, then I’m playing select Volleyball.”

You can see how Lorett takes care of that potential problem. She just double (more…)

The Hawks District Track team has had a couple of meets to get some idea of where they might

stand against their District 27-3A brethren.

Below you will find out based on CL’s best times and distances compared with athletes from other district teams.

Notice that you will see names of the events followed by where they would stack up with opponents.

Also, number notations will indicate the date of when said athlete performed their time. Hence a 2.23 would let you know the month and date of that performance.

Numbers at the end of each line will give you how much that event would be worth for the District teams.

Jordan Anderson’s first place time in the 100 Meter Dash would be worth 10 points for Canyon Lake.

The numbers below represent what each District 27-3A school has performed at their different

meets so far in this young season.

If you combine all the times and distances for each event then you can have an idea of where each district team might fall if the District Meet was held today.

Have a look at how your Hawks are doing. The ReSporter has also added the Junior Varsity on these events.

Canyon Lake Girls Track has several hurdles to clear this year in their meets.

Track and Field is one sport that a team is not limited on the number of participants that can participate. Well kinda….

Baseball you play with 9
Football you play with 11
Basketball you play with 5…

You get the idea, this sport can be dominated by teams with the most athletes many times.

Points are scored through a sixth place finisher and many times a team that will run away with a team award will be that school with many finishers that finish in that 4-6 place slot.

Look at Fredericksburg Track team and you will see many athletes scoring points which adds up.

Canyon Lake Boy’s team last year finished a distant second to Fredericksburg even though the Hawks had top finishers in several events and relays. However, where CL had one finisher, Fredericksburg would have two or more.

Canyon Lake Boys Track team finished a very impressive 5th place in the Don Shelton Relays on Thursday, March 7th.

The Hawks were in competition with much larger schools and held their own in amassing 69 points in this meet. There were only three points separating four schools which comprised of Canyon Lake.

Jordan Anderson was the top point athlete for the Hawks with two first place finishes in the 100 and 400 meter runs. Anderson also finished 2nd in the High Jump and ran the anchor leg of the 4×100 relay that also finished in second.

Anderson’s point tallied 32 points for the Hawks.

Christian Dittman had a CL best and finished first in the Pole Vault with a jump of 13’6.

Canyon Lake Tracksters have a successful go as they prepare for another season.

Blanco was their first stop around the track and will soon see how improvement implements itself as several athletes will be testing their bodies for an ultimate goal of becoming better as the season progresses.

Marisa Ellis and Jordan Anderson won all of their events entered as they both look to repeat a trip to Austin this Spring.

Ellis won both the High Jump and Triple Jump while Anderson was first in the 100, 200, 400, and High Jump events.

Next meet will be this coming Thursday in Hays as this season starts to get in gear, don’t miss some incredible athletes if you are in the area.
