Canyon Lake still had enough energy to kneel after game with Marion

Good news Bad news in game with Marion on Friday night.

Good news? Canyon Lake scored 50 points
Bad news? Canyon Lake lost

Over 100 points scored (105 to be exact) as the Hawks were able to stop the Marion Bulldogs on just two possessions.

“They have a good offensive team and they exposed us,” Head Coach Charley Drum stated. “They took advantage of our young guys and we will have to figure out a way to win this type of games when it counts.”

Coach Drum was talking on how the Hawks seem to lose more close games than they win.

Braden Hight and Michael Harwell start lifting weights in Lee Stafford

Canyon Lake JV won their 2nd game in a row after a rain delayed affair at the Hawk Nest, winning, 28-8.

The game started slow as both teams could not muster any momentum as the Hawk offense had just 3 offensive plays for 7 yards and a punt.

For Marion Bulldogs, they had first crack with their offense and quickly moved down the field only to stall out at CL’s 5 yard line.

The Marion Quarterback was a master with the hand off as the Hawks defense could not figure who would have the ball.

Nathan DeLeon is all smiles after finding his afterburners in pursuit of a Cougar

Canyon Lake Freshman moved their record to 3-0 after beating San Antonio Cole, 16-8 on a rainy day at the Hawk Nest.

The game was delayed well over an hour before the teams would enter the field but the good news was the 79 degrees temperature when the kick-off, kicked-off.

CL Hawks would not take long before they would score on their first possession when Chance Martelli recovered a Hawk fumble in the end zone for the score.

Using the word recover is a misnomer as Martelle would just pick the ball off the turf and raise it in the air.

Coaches Corner with the Hawk’s Charley Drum

Canyon Lake’s Head Coach Charley Drum

The ReSporter: I know you are young and starting a Sophomore at QB, what do you do to help his passing as he does not seem to have found his touch.

Coach Drum: “We just need to get him comfortable….he had good games in the scrimmages and now he is in real time friday night lights. He is trying to make the perfect pass and he will become more of a threat with more throwing.”

The ReSporter: You have already seen several key players go down with an injury, how will you adjust as this season continues?

Coach Drum: “Injuries are part of the game and sometimes you have better years and sometimes you don’t. We had Gordon (McCleary) go down last week and that had us bring up (Austin) Rodriguez up from the freshman team.” (more…)

Senior Outside Hitter Addison Farley getting her point across

Canyon Lake beat #7th Ranked La Grange on the road on Tuesday in 5 sets as the non-district part of the Hawks schedule has been completed.

CL does not have as good of a record as last year at this time of the season, but you certainly can make the case that this Hawk team might be better than last year’s edition.

Canyon Lake now boasts a 20-8 slate and a record that has losses to 5A and 6A schools and one loss to Peaster which came in the Wimberley tournament early in August.

That loss to Peaster was a game that CL lost the services of Addison Farley when she turned her ankle during the warm ups before that game.

Peaster is a 3A school that is presently ranked #1 in that classification and so even the one smaller school that was victorious is ranked in the nose bleed area.

Canyon Lake won the first set by 9 points, 25-16 but La Grange made a statement set immediately when they gave the Hawks one of their most lopsided losses of the year, 25-12.

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.

Robert Woods running for 123 yards in game with Smithville last year

Canyon Lake will be in the same position as last season in need of another win to break the .500 mark and ready themselves for their district campaign.

The Hawks cannot afford to go to sleep on this game since they have not been setting the world on fire themselves, but Marion did match their win total for all of last year when they beat Karnes City last week.

Head Cross Country Coach Mary Beth Gallagher

Coaches Corner with Cross Country Coach Mary Beth Gallagher

The ReSporter: Hey Coach, what are your expectations for this year’s Cross Country team? (more…)
