Coach Kim Paisley giving instructions for a serve

The ReSporter: You went primary with the 5-1 offense in Navarro. You mentioned last week that you would do this against teams like Navarro. Why is that?

Coach Paisley: “I ran a 5-1 offense all 3 sets of Navarro match because the 5-1 offense is more fluid and consistent offensively. Our hitters are connecting more.”

The ReSporter: “We also noticed you started the match with a kill from Emma Gray with a set to the outside…it seemed to make a statement. Was that a special play or are you implementing for offensive sets with that play as an option?”

Coach Paisley: “That set is part of our serve receive and it is a “special” play!” (more…)

Hawk Nation celebrating after a Hawk Sweep over Navarro

Canyon Lake’s Volleyball team is on a roll after their Tuesday win over Navarro, but if you have not noticed the Hawks also have the Freshman and Junior Varsity clubs that have also gone undefeated in District 26-4A.

Junior Felicity Niestemski was one of many JV Hawks helping with 3-0 start in District 26-4A play

Both teams beat Navarro as the Freshman swept with a 2-0 match and the JV had a 2-1 victory.

For that JV game on Tuesday, the Hawks were night and day difference between their first and second sets.

“The difference comes down to warm-ups,” Head JV Coach Megan Helmey said calmly. “It takes this team time to get focused.”

Canyon Lake JV was off and on in that first set as both teams never could get a commanding lead as the Hawks just were not able to take advantage in the sluggish first set.

If you were late to the party and you had walked in during that second set, then you would ask how bad did the Hawks win the first game.

First, first is that this team is now all alone in first place.

Second, first is now having the longest winning streak in school history with 11.

Third, first is having Freshman, JV, and Varsity with all perfect, 3-0 district records.

“This was a huge win,” Head Coach Kim Paisley said excitedly. “They stayed focused as you could barely hear on the court and we had a good finish and we worked hard.”

Bailey Drum getting her point across as Alexis Robinson and Hannah Wunderlich wait in anticipation

CL Hawks (22-8) Volleyball team swept Gonzales on Friday going, 2-0 in District 26-4A and setting up a show down this coming Tuesday in Navarro.

There are some decent teams in District 26-4A this year, but only two teams have a solid resume and the Hawk’s next opponent will be that other team.

CL did not take any prisoners on this evening jumping out for a, 25-6 first set victory that would give you an indication of what would happen for this evening.

Gonzales has just 2 wins this season and keeping the game competitive would be difficult on this night for the Apaches.

The Hawks won the next two sets to complete the sweep, 25-10 and 25-15.

Head Volleyball Coach Kimberley Paisley

The ReSporter: What is your thinking on where the team is as district play starts?
Coach Paisley: “We handled business in 3 sets and 1-0 is a great start. I felt we had a rusty start in game 1 due to being off for a week, but we got back on track and will continue to lay the hammer and compete.”

The ReSporter: What are some things that need to be shored up as you proceed?
Coach Paisley: “We must be more consistent with our serve receive and defense. Everything begins with a pass. Must be sharp and consistent as we head on from there and our offense will fall into place and be more consistent.”

The ReSporter has a partial record account for teams in the Hawk district but will have a disclaimer since finding correct records is not an easy task as each team does not enter all there games with the media.

La Vernia, Canyon Lake, and Navarro will be the closest to having their record correct below. Of course, the Hawk’s record is exact.

Enjoy as next week The ReSporter will just have the District records recorded since the teams have to put those out in the open for obvious reasons.
