                Stay in Shape Hawks!

It was a week that saw some growing pains (in the form of losses) and positive strides in all the games.

First off, The Hawks Volleyball, saw some decent competition after winning one game in the Peiper Tournament. The ladies came out of the tourney sporting a, 7-7 record and will have a road game on Tuesday in Somerset and then off to another large school tournament in Seguin.

Water Polo saw some firsts for the Ladies as this is the first season with a full contingent of players. The CL Women did take a win for their 2nd of the season and continues to get offensive moments which was not happening last season.

                     Let’s GO HAWKS!!

“The girls have scored more goals in five games than they did in eight games last season plus 2 program wins,” Coach Page Small said excitedly. “We are scoring more goals per game but our inability to play counterattack defense appears to be our achilles heel.”

Coach Small then turned his attention to the boys, “We are struggling with consistency. Taking too many possessions off and swimming station to station instead of releasing for the ball helping and these are glaring issues we’re trying to clean up.”

After the tournament Coach Small summed it up, “Boys ore improving in a lot of areas, mostly they are now setting up for power plays and learning to play zone defenses.”

Tennis took last week off and will face Davenport at the Hawk Nest this Tuesday with a 4pm start time.

Varsity will take the Devil’s Back-Bone with a 7:30pm kick-off.

“The team (lady Hawks) performed superbly,” Head Coach Page Small quipped. “This win was the first team win and we accomplished during first game of the season. The team is much improved.”

For the Boys, Levi Garner was leading scorer with 7 goals while Goalie Greyson Patton with 15 saves.

“The Boys are off to a 1-0 record similar to the girls and appear to be further along than this time last year,” Coach Small said. “Everyone played a lot of minutes in this game, great start to the season.”
