Canyon Lake beats the Orange Yellow Jackets.

Freshman Setter Mia Riali

Canyon Lake did not lose a game all night….let that sink in.

The Freshman team won 2-0, the JV team won 2-0, and the Varsity won 3-0.

Canyon Lake Freshman girls started with a tough first game but finished with a more consistent second game and ran away with that second game and the match, 25-23, 25-12.

Llano just had too many unforced errors in that second game and Canyon Lake made sure that the Orange-Yellow Jackets would not get back in the game.

The ReSporter: The San Marcos Tournament was your last tourney…how do you see

Head Volleyball Coach Kimberley Paisley

what needs to be worked on as you go these last few weeks before the start of district play?

Coach Paisley: “The San Marcos tournament was excellent, especially for the last tournament. We definitely played stronger teams. We also have had the chance to watch some film and see ourselves in action. We are focusing on certain areas of our game and fixing it up.”

The ReSporter: The ReSporter noticed on the stat line that Regan Mickey seems to be getting more involved, is she above the curve or about where you thought she would be at this time?

Senior Amber Ramsey puts a block on the Lions

Canyon Lake swept Lockhart Tuesday night at the Hawk Gym as all three squads (Freshman, JV, and Varsity) took care of business on their home court.

Canyon Lake Varsity won their pivotal game after Lockhart tied up the match at one game a piece.

The Hawks had a game point and a five point lead 24-19 when the Lions responded with a five point rally to tie the score.

Lillie Sander then responded with a kill to side out and then finished off Lockhart with a service ace to end the threat and give CL a hard fought victory.

“I feel like we do too much and then we don’t take advantage of all those opportunities that Lockhart gave us,” Head Coach Kimberley Paisley stated. “We made the game tougher on ourselves.”

The ReSporter: How is the progress, progressing as this season enters the second

Head Volleyball Coach Kimberley Paisley

week?

Coach Paisley: “Week one started off rocky Tuesday, but rolled around at Tesfest. (Wimberley’s Tournament) The energy and togetherness came and we picked up our level of play. We had a ton of growth during those two days.”

The ReSporter: What is your quest as you proceed from here?

Coach Paisley: “Our quest is getting better every week…getting primed for district. The more competitive we play each week, will only prepare us for our district.”

‘Consistent’ has been that one word to describe what Head Coach Kimberley Paisley

Junior Libero Hayley Melone

would want Canyon Lake Volleyball team to say no matter their outcome in these early pre/district games.

Now with two wins in the Wimberley Tex-Fest Tournament you might see a decent team starting to take hold of that word.

“We are getting more comfortable with our offense and defense, Coach (Paisley) is wanting us to run,” Junior Libero Haley Malone offered. “That is helping us cover the court and be more consistent.”

The Hawks are serving a lot of youth from behind the line and need to be sure they are communicating.

The CL Hawks started their new season with a new coach and a lot of new players as they suffered two losses in the three team round robin to Clemens and Liberty Hill.

“It is all about coming to the game prepared and we have a lot of things to work on,” Head Coach Kimberley Paisley stated. “We are only as strong as our weakest link.”

Coach Paisley could be seen exhorting throughout each game as the Hawks had way too many unforced errors causing both losses.

“We had too many missed serves and we killed ourselves in both games,” Coach Paisley continued. “Our offense needs to be cleaned up.”

“There are some things we need to work through and we are not perfect….I’m looking for a solid eight players and I just don’t know who that core group is yet.”

This will certainly be a learning experience as this season commences.
