Jordan Anderson takes Track and Field seriously.

Jordan Anderson hanging with Dad as Track Meet draws to a close

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.

The Hawks continue on their trek of improving their finishes as Track Season hovers the middle of the season.

Last week, Canyon Lake was in Wimberley competing with seven other schools. The Hawks finished fourth with the results below:

 1st     Dripping Springs    125.5
 2nd     Lehman              122.0
 3rd     Marble Falls        104.5
 4th     Canyon Lake          91.0
 5th     Hays High            65.0
 6th     Smithville           59.0
 7th     Wimberley            42.0
 8th     Blanco               11.0

During the Spring Break, Canyon Lake will be off this week and have their sites on March 22nd with a Meet at Wimberley.

The ReSporter has gone back and taken the best times for CL Hawks and injected them on a meet that was held last week, called the Cibolo Steele Invitational.

There was eight teams invited with all the teams participating at a 4A and 5A enrollment classification.

To throw Canyon Lake into this meet will be an eye opener for those fans in the Canyon Lake area that might not realize just how good this group of Athletes are performing.

Do realize that Canyon Lake’s finishes are based on three meets and they are the best times for this season.

So the following results will be off a small amount, but the final should be close to what the actual meet would finish.

Below you have the teams and what District they are from with the finish they had earlier this month. The ReSporter will give you the Hawk Athletes and their finish based on their best time and distance being placed into this track meet.

The ReSporter will also be running last year’s District 26-3A Meet with this year’s Hawk Team. Stayed Tuned!!

Canyon Lake Boy’s and Girl’s Track Teams will have a week off after getting a cold

Marisa Ellis Reaching New Heights

reception in Kerrville for the Antler’s Relays last Thursday night.

“It was FREEZING!!! 45 degrees and 20-30 mph winds not a good day for track,” Head Girls Coach Lacey Lambert said. “Before it got too cold… Marisa Ellis broke school records in the triple jump with 36’6” shattering the previous record as well as jumping 5’3” in high jump.”

Track is one sport where wearing more clothes will give you slower times. Football has pads and lots of exertion, where Track teams rely on less weight on the body so they can maximize their events.

Coach Lambert was very excited with some of the younger athletes, “JV Freshman Grace Allen also triple jumped for the first time and won with a jump of 31’7”.  Hayley Melone jumped 14’ in the JV long jump as well.”

Canyon Lake found themselves with some pretty strong competition as they found

it hard to score in multiple events.

This competition will improve the team in future meets as the Hawk Relays had some teams that will do well when their District meets arrive in more than a month.

CL scored in seven of the events and seem to find many areas where a few more weeks of work outs will eventually pay dividends.

The Hawk Junior Varsity finished with 83 points and finished fourth scoring in 11 events.

Canyon Lake finished only five points from Wimberley as the two teams only had their Relay teams compete in last week’s Blanco Relays.
(more…)

The Canyon Lake Track hosted eight teams Thursday as the weather and

competition lead to a great day on the cinders.

Canyon and Dripping Springs were the largest schools competing as Brownwood, Wimberley, Somerset, Blanco, San Antonio Cole and your Hawks rounded out the field.

Canyon Lake Varsity Boys finished third behind Canyon and Dripping Springs.

The Hawks set several team records for the meet.

Tony Hocutt added to his previous best with a Discus toss of 129 feet and two inches.
