The Field event has a lot of possibilities for some 26-3A Athletes to have a chance

to compete in the highest of venues. UIL State Meet in Austin will entertain all the qualifiers from four different regions around the Great State!

As we go over the next group of events, please take note of some exceptional athletes that have height and distances.

If you have missed any of these articles, you can go back in time and find how the Sprints, Hurdles, and Distance Events will pan out as Canyon Lake prepares to meet the other five District schools at Hawk Cinders this next week.

These articles are detail information on how these students have competed over the last seven weeks and how they stack up against there district counterparts.

The ReSporter hopes you are enjoying these Break Downs. Now for our Field Events Athletes.

The Hawks have a good group of guys running the relays. Pretty simple synopsis…

Zach Henshaw first Leg of 4x100 Relay

Canyon Lake beat there all-time best in all three relays at the Tiger Relays in Dripping Springs over a week ago.

The Mile Relay was brought down enough to give this foursome a chance to make State.

Both of the other two relays might need some good hand offs to maximize a time that would have a chance to make the next level.

Canyon Lake won all three events last season and this foursome has been together all year and have a good balance and work well together.

Eduardo Covarrubias, Doug Hubnik, Daniel Camarillo, and Zach Henshaw look to be peeking right at a good time to bring home some medals.

Below is the run down for the Relays as well as the projected finish of this year’s District 26-3A Meet.

After going over the Sprint Events earlier, The ReSporter will now delve into Distance

and Hurdle events from the District 26-3A schools.

At our last writing, Fredericksburg had 31 points with Wimberley and Bandera close behind scoring 25 and 18 respectively.

To go over how this evaluation transpires: The ReSporter has dug up as many of the Track Meets from all the schools and have put the results in a competition against each district team.

This will give you a good idea of how the Meet will unfold this coming week. If there is one constant for Track is that all the runners will run against the clock and this will give you a good way of seeing the event finish.

Athletes times should be constant in theory no matter where they are running. However there will also be different weather patterns and running against tougher competition will equate to better times and distances.

After evaluating six events for Sprints and Distance the District Scores so far are in

Junior Eduardo Covarrubias running in the Hawks Tri-Meet

Fredericksburg favor.

The distance runs helped the Billies score 51 points worth of separation for the rest of the district teams.

At our last writing the District 26-3A race was as follows:

91  Fredericksburg
39  Canyon Lake
20  Boerne
15  Bandera
12  Wimberley
3  Navarro

Now this writing will concentrate on the Hurdles and Field events.

There will be eight events for this breakdown.

110 Meter Hurdles:

Navarro’s Miricle has the best time (15.56) for this run. Fredericksburg will once again dominate as they have the second, fifth, and six best times.

Boerne has the third and fourth best times. This will have three teams that can score for these hurdles.

Canyon Lake has the seventh and eighth best times and could make an appearance, but something would have to befall another runner to place.

The ReSporter has compiled the best times for athletes from the six District 26-3A

schools and have them ranked in order to come up with a prognostication on the upcoming district meet.

Dividing the 17 events into four different categories will give you an idea of where you might want to concentrate your attention if you are fortunate to be at the two day event this week.

The results will be flawed (injuries, grades, etc.) but after using this same method last season, the team finish was the same just some minor adjustments with the final point total for each school.

The four areas that will be dissected are as follows: Sprints—Distance—Hurdles—Field Events.

Jordan Anderson takes Track and Field seriously.

The young man runs three sprint and two field events. That can lead to a very tiring day on the cinders, especially when you consider that for District 26-3A Meet being held at Canyon Lake next week, there will be several prelims to whittle down the field to eight sprinters.

Anderson has upped the ante on all his races and field events this season and in so doing has given himself a good chance of getting to the Regional Meet in all five events.

Last season Anderson was not prepared for the newness of running in a meet that had the best athletes from Region 4.

An area that goes from Liberty Hill down to Harlingen.

“Last year I stayed awake till 3am thinking that I would not start until late in the morning,” Anderson sprinted his first answer. “I was hanging with guys that ran the sprints like me, but was not participating in field events. When I found out that I had to be at the track earlier, it gave me only three hours of sleep for the first day.”

Sophomore mistake that will probably not be repeated this year.

“I feel the most confident on the high jump,” Anderson responded on which of the five events he is feeling the best at so far this season.

The ReSporter: Pretty impressive to be able to improve in all three of the

relays…what are the guys doing that has given these type of results?

Coach Montgomery: “The boys work very hard in practice, and we have done a good job of ensuring that we do not overtrain. We have to balance their track with their weightlifting.”

The ReSporter: Jaaz McNair improved his Shot Put throw by almost three feet…can you tell us what his technique might have been to improve that much in just one week?

Coach Montgomery: “He has been doing well in practice, and he got off a good throw in Dripping Springs. No real changes in technique.”

Canyon Lake came through with flying colors at last in Dripping Springs

participating in the Tiger Relays.

Canyon Lake finished third in the meet as the outdistanced Lake Travis and Austin Westlake in the process.

The real kicker was brought in by the Relay team of Doug Hubnik, Daniel Camarillo, Eduardo Covarrubias and Zach Henshaw.

These four Hawks were in all three relays that set school records in each event.

The Hawks were off to Dripping Springs last week and both the Girls and Boys Tracksters continue to improve with personal and team bests.

The Girls 4×400 Relay improved their time by five seconds as they brought there time down to 4:11.15 which would place this Relay group to three seconds better than the second place best of Fredericksburg.

The ReSporter has compiled the best times in the District this year and have those times below.

Canyon Lake is presently in fifth place but they improved their point total by 20 points in the last week giving them a great chance to finish in fourth place next week for the District Meet.

The Girls also have some marks that have a chance to advance to State this year.

The Hawk girls improved in many of the events, but their times did not place in

several events since so many larger schools were competing.

However the following results for Canyon Lake for the Texan Relays were recorded and you can see the athletes and how they finished below.

Don’t forget that CL will be competing this Friday at Dripping Springs and will continue to have events against larger schools.

The Mile Relay Team had their best time last week and is now the fastest time for District 26-3A this season.

Also, Melissa Ellis continues to perform at a high level for her first year with Canyon Lake.
