The ReSporter would like to finish this year’s sports campaign by

Senior Missy Romero

recognizing three Seniors that were covered by this website.

Last Thursday night, Canyon Lake Coaches announced their winners at a Banquet for the Track, Baseball, Golf, and Softball teams during the spring awards night.

Missy Romero, Matt Magness, and Zach Henshaw were the three students recognized by their Coaches as Seniors that were the outstanding athlete for this academic year.

Missy Romero literally kept the Softball program in the circle the past four years.

Softball was one of the last team sports to make the playoffs last season, when they not only qualified for the playoffs, but was the first team to ever finish second in District competition.

Romero has set the standard for CL Softball for years to come, as she signed on with Copiah-Lincoln Community College in Mississippi before the season was in full gear.

Bracken Christian (20-6) lost to Huntsville Alpha Omega, 14-25, 25-20, 20-25, and 19-25, Friday at Providence High School in downtown San Antonio in the Semi Final State Playoffs.

The first game was all Lions after jumping out to a lead Bracken could not match.

“Making errors that we don’t typically make,” Head Coach Shaunna Teuton said. “We could not do anything effectively.”

Alpha Omega had three rallies of five points as the Lions took advantage of the same offensive strategy that Bracken had been doing to their opponents during their 12 game winning streak.

The serve had been a catalyst for BCS, yet it was the Lions that were serving notice it might be a long game for the Warriors.

Bracken Christian will be heading to San Antonio this Friday for a game in the Semi-Finals against Huntsville Alpha Omega.

The Warriors are going in with a 12 game winning streak and seem to be playing at a high level for the Final Four match-ups.

ReSporter: How would you evaluate where the team is going into this weekend?

Teuton: “I thought this is where we could be when we started this season…the players have played to their potential…it talks about how far we have come and how hard we have worked, but we know we need to fight go get the Championship.”

The Bracken Christian Warriors won an epic battle against San Antonio Lutheran in a five game set, 25-17, 20-25, 25-16, 24-26, and 15-7.

Head Coach Shaunna Teuton mentioned after the win on Tuesday that if Briana Martinez was able to suit up, then she was going to play and definitely serve.

“We knew what we had to do going into the fifth game,” Coach Teuton said. “I asked them (team) whoever wanted most….Bre (Martinez) was the momentum turner.”

Miss Martinez had spent some time during the week in the hospital.

“I did not have very much energy,” Martinez sighed. “Adrenaline kicked in and I knew I needed to get in a groove.”

The Coach for Lutheran tried to freeze Martinez twice during the eight point rally.

“I just have to think about how to do my form in my head,” Martinez served an ace. “It is all a mental game.”

Blockers Bailey Beene and Wendy Johnson taking care of Business

The Area round of playoffs was a slow starting game for the Bracken Warriors as they had to come back to win the first game and then cruised to a three game sweep of Dalllas Lakehill Warriors at the Bracken gym on Tuesday night.

“Working out our nerves for the first playoff game…I don’t like the bye,” Head Coach Shaunna Teuton stated. “We did play some warm up games, but the playoffs are different and we needed to have one under our belt.”

BCS could not get any rallies as the team seemed to be playing in quick sand for much of the first game.

“We were just nervous on the first game,” Killer Amanda Morgan said. “We just played the first game as a warm up game and did not take it seriously.”

On the solution, Morgan reiterated, “We will warm up harder for the next game.”

Amber Ramsey goes for the kill in game against Wimberley

The Lady Hawks know what standard that is needed now as they look towards next season.

This year’s team will not have the thrill of advancing to the playoffs like the previous two Hawk teams.

The first game Canyon Lake kept the score close trailing 6-8 going into the last half of the rotation.

Then the flood gates were opened and the Hawks could not get any rallies going to equate with the lethal Lady Texans.

Wimberley is one of the mainstays in Volleyball as they have set up a permanent residence in the playoffs for many years now.

The Bracken Christian Warriors defeated Holy Trinity-Temple last night at the Warrior gym as the School and Parents honored the Seniors playing their last home game in season play.

The good news would be there will be a second act, as the win enabled BCS another home game in the playoffs, Tuesday October 25th.

Bracken has been on a tear the last half of the season after a heartbreaking loss to Kerrville OLH in their first District game. They now are riding a nine game winning streak.

The Warriors have not tasted defeat since as they have dug, given assists to others, had aces up their sleeves, block parties, and of course all of the above leading to kills for the wins.

“We are so excited about last night!! Both JV and Varsity persevered for our district title,” Head Coach Shaunna Teuton said excitedly.

The Warriors started the match losing their first game, 23-25.

“I think we were working out the nerves in the first game,” Coach Teuton said. “We were making some mistakes that we don’t typically make and they came out with a fast lead. We worked hard to catch up, but never passed them. At the end of the first game we had the momentum, though not the win, and went with it. They were close games and we had to work hard.”

Bracken has been on a roll after losing their first District game of the year. The Warriors have been unbeaten since the loss to Kerrville OLH four weeks ago.

Canyon Lake could not muster the energy to beat Navarro last Tuesday night at the Hawk Gym.

The loss gives Canyon Lake a large hole to dig out of for the remainder of the season.

Winning out and getting some help from some other teams will need to be the formula for the Hawks to muster enough wins to make the post season.

“We played like this the first time we played Navarro,” Head Coach Nicole Creek surmised. “At least we took one game from them last time.”

Bracken Christian got back at Kerrville OLH on Saturday with a three game sweep, 25-18, 25-21, and 25-19.

Just a couple of weeks ago this same Warriors team was beaten in Kerrville after enjoying substantial leads in two of the games. The ability of not finishing was their downfall.

Jump up the calendar from that dreadful night and you will see a team that now enjoys a five game district winning streak and is tied for first place.

The Warriors are now starting their second round through district and are jockeying for playoff seeding.
