Five Top Games of 2014-15 School Year

Will Gray will be one of several players coming back for what could be a coming out party next year

The ReSporter will be having a 5-Part series talking about the top 5 sporting events of this season starting with the 5th Place game down to the number 1 (according to the ReSporter) game.

We will set up what was happening during the season of that sport and rehash that event.

If you would like to comment, then please feel free to give us your thoughts on that game or event and your thoughts.

This will be The ReSporter’s 1500th article since we started with this venture a little over 5 years ago.

We would like to remind you that The ReSporter needs your help with advertisements for this coming season as this is just a break even adventure at the moment.

Hawks Digging for more points in just 9 more months.

Canyon Lake’s Volleyball team celebrated their best year since the school opened this past season and added to their first team recipients by two finishing with three players this year.

Bailey Drum was awarded offensive player of the district as she was joined by five other Hawks that made up the first and second team players.

Canyon Lake finished this season hitting the 30 win mark as well as making the second round of playoffs.

Great year for this group of young ladies, the Canyon Lake communities are proud of how your represented this beautiful area of the Hill Country.

Thanks for putting in all the hard work in getting to these lofty heights.

The ReSporter: First off you overall thoughts on this past year…

Coach Paisley: “The season started off with goals that we as a team set as soon as the teams were made (during

Head Volleyball Coach Kimberley Paisley

two-a-days). The goals we discussed were navigated by me because I believed the things we discussed were very attainable for this group of hard working young ladies. I knew we could be co-champs, district champs, or second place in our district. I knew we were making the playoffs and going 2-3 deep in playoffs. I knew school records would be broken. When I hung the “Gold Ball” in their face (which is a trophy that will have their names on it) they were hungry and dead set on attaining these goals.”

The ReSporter: Second, what would you like to say about the Seniors on this past year’s roster?

Coach Paisley: “They were ready to make their last year memorable. They believed in their team and the program and wanted to leave a legacy. They wanted to build tradition.”

The ReSporter: What will be your goals for next year’s team and how will that be realized? (more…)

Mariah Ellis is goes all out in game with Sealy

Canyon Lake’s Volleyball season came to a close last Thursday in Smithville when the upstart Sealy Tigers took a bite out of these Hawks, 25-22, 25-22, 27-25.

“This was a tough battle from the very beginning,” Head Coach Kimberley Paisley said. “We did not do a good job of executing and did not go downside well.

The Hawk’s ‘Bucket List’ year has come to a close as this three set match seemed like a five set affair with Sealy looking just better than this Hawk club.

Senior Kacee Vrana plays punch a ball in making a save in game with Sealy

Sealy opened play with a 7-2 lead, when CL had a tying six point serve and tied game at eight all.

Addison Farley was called on on that rally as she responded with four kills to help in bring the Hawks back into the game.

After another mini run by the Tigers, CL could not get closer than two points, when they fought back to a 21-23 score.

This sequence would be the same story same verse for the remainder of the next two sets as CL did find themselves with their biggest lead in the second set, when they raced to an 8-3 lead and matched that lead again when they had an 11-5 lead moments later.

Hawks getting ready for their Playoff run after Honoring America!

Canyon Lake can now mark another item off their ‘Bucket List’ when they took care of the Taylor Ducks in three sets and getting their first playoff win in three playoff tries, 25-15, 25-13, and 25-21.

“It was a good win,” Head Coach Kimberley Paisley said. “This means we get to keep playing.”

Pick your poison on who you Block Ducks

The Hawks jumped out to big leads in their first two sets as they continued the same type of game against Taylor they had enjoyed in their match that was played earlier in the Cedar Park Tournament.

“Taylor played better in their third set,” Coach Paisley continued. “This was another bucket list that we set out to accomplish this season in winning the first playoff game. Now everything we do from hear on out is accomplishing another bucked list.”

That Bucket List is pretty full now as, CL will now see about getting some bigger buckets while this season continues into Thursday’s game with Sealy.

The dynamic dual of Bailey Drum and Addison Farley were once again lethal to the Ducks as both players had double digit kills, 16 and 15 respectfully.

Sophomore Regan Mickey with her patented tip shot

Canyon Lake gobbled up the Gobblers from Cuero in Volleyball action, taking this contest in three sets, 25-17, 25-15, and 28-26.

“We started with more energy in this game,” Head Coach Kim Paisley said. “We did not do a pre game last week and we were not mentally ready, but tonight we did a good job and I don’t want them to get comfortable.”

The Hawks have accomplished many milestones this year but the major barrier now is solving the slump that hit this club after the Wimberley loss a couple of weeks ago.

This game with Cuero will help in seeing if CL can get on a run before the ‘Second’ season gets started.

Canyon Lake started the first set with Hannah Wunderlich being the main attraction with two kills to start the action.
