Rachel Bennett will be ready for turn-a-round game in Bandera on Tuesday

The Lady Hawk Soccer Team was close in their loss to Wimberley as the Texans left the CL’s Nest with a 3-1 victory leaving the Hawks needing a win this Tuesday on their road trip to Bandera.

Canyon Lake had the game tied with less than 6 minutes to go in the contest when Wimberley scored and took the contest to their eventual score of, 3-1.

“This was disappointing,” Head Coach Ryan Tierney stated. “Bandera is a winnable game for us and we will have to beat them…..we are passing better and we are playing with a lot of physicality.”

The Hawks had battled back against the Texans as this contest did not get out of reach until the last two minutes to this 12 win state ranked school.

Maddy Puente & Bailey Bryan with Home-Run Balls

Canyon Lake left their last day at the Navarro Tournament with a sweep, as the Austin Royals and Yoakum Bulldogs were the victims of the Hawk’s power.

The Hawk’s scored 16 runs in both games, while stroking 28 hits with 7 doubles, 1 triple, and 2 home-runs making up 10 of those 28 hits.

CL finished the Navarro Tourney in 2nd place out of 24 teams for their best finish since they started attending this first of the year set of games.

“With this line-up we are pretty strong from one to nine with our power, bunting, and slapping,” Head Coach John Gallagher stated.

Lauren Mentzer gets even after pitching a 1-hitter against Luling

Hawks Suffer Growing Pains after mixed results on Friday at the Huber Softball Complex Tournament.

Canyon Lake had a rude awakening at 9am on Friday morning as the 7th rated Cuero Gobblers took control of this game early from the circle and the batter’s box.

Both places were lethal for the Hawks as they were able to coax a walk for their only successful ab bat as CL found it hard to get the bat on the ball for the entire contest.

Lauren Mentzer started the game but could not control the strike zone as Cuero took advantage and ran out to an 11-0 final score.

Kat Weber is ready for break out year!!

Canyon Lake accomplished getting that bad taste out of their mouths after starting the season with a loss to Wimberley. On Thursday at Huber Ranch, the Hawks, outscored their two opponents, 35-0 as CL left no prisoners.

Pearsall and Jefferson were the two schools taking the brunt of CL’s bad mood as both games were stopped after the 2nd and 3rd innings respectfully.

Some good signs as Maddy Puente and Lauren Mentzer both had home-runs in the second game and Puente’s had an exclamation point with a grand slam.

Go Hawks and pounce on the competition this year.

Canyon Lake began their new season getting drummed by the Texans as the Hawks had a hard time keeping Wimberley off the base paths.

Lauren Mentzer got the first start of the season and will try to forget this outing as quickly as possible in preparation for the Huber tournament that starts on Thursday.

Canyon Lake had 4 players that had their first game for the Hawks and adding up their combined stats shows this has an opportunity to be a decent season.

  Go Hawks!!

Canyon Lake’s Bus was seen at Boerne High School for their final District 28-4A contest, however, the players did not get off the bus as the Hawks laid an egg in their loss to the Greyhounds, 68-39.

CL will now wait for Wimberley and Navarro to decide which team will play the Hawks as these two schools will have a playoff this Friday in New Braunfels to decide the 1st and 2nd seed for District 27-4A.

The Hawks will have the loser of that contest and they will have the Bi-District contest next Tuesday.

Senior Brandon Courtney looks to get back to Austin this Year!

Track & Field will begin when the Hawks will welcome Schools to the Canyon Lake’s Hawk Relays this coming Saturday, February 20th.

The ReSporter has gone back in history to compile the Top Ten Track Athletes in scoring.

What you will see all the Hawk athletes below has some salty numbers as, The ReSporter, can remember three Meets where Jordan Anderson scored a maximum of 50 points.

Brandon Courtney will go into his Senior year in second place with 225 points and a chance to solidify his marks higher into CL’s hierarchy.

Canyon Lake Boy’s Soccer almost pulled off the surprise of the year in Hawk sports as Boerne came away with a 3-2 win after a controversial penalty kick for the Greyhounds with less than 3 minutes left in the contest.

“We will just have to shake it off,” Head Coach Warren Graham said. “It is frustrating and next time we will be playing them at there place and that will be difficult as they play better at their home, but it will be a battle.”
