Canyon Lake JV squad is night day different team from last season.

Case and point is watching Liberty Hill jumping up and down after winning a squeaker contest over a team that was lucky to score much less get a win a year ago.

Offensive Lineman Tyler Kidd and Running Back Charlie McIntosh

The ReSporter remembers interviewing Tyler McCleary after a game last season because he scored two points after intercepting a two point conversion try running 100 yards to score those points.

This year, not only is this team winning, but they are playing with such improvement that any game is a winnable affair.

An on-side kick to start the game did give the Hawks a chance to inflict some pain on this Panther team, but that drive did not produce a first down and Liberty Hill was just delayed in having a chance with the ball.

Mountain Valley 7th and 8th B squads were combined for a game with Lago Vista to kick-off a three game affair with the Vikings.

“Our kids played hard tonight,” Head Coach Blake Miller quoted. “I am very excited for our kids today to get this win. A number of them stepped up and played well even though the circumstances were not the best.”

This Hawk club was victorious, 32-6 as this game was with a running clock from the opening whistle.

If you add another facet of a Lago Vista coaching staff, waiting to call a play about one per minute, fans would have a good reason to see if paint actually does dry that slowly.

Mountain Valley 7A team sunk Lago Vista Vikings, 22-0 on Thursday night as the defense controlled their game.

Hawk Running Back Nick Rivera after, 22-0 victory over Lago Vista

The Hawks started the game with a methodical 48 yard drive taking five minutes off the clock and forging to a 8-0 early lead.

This drive was highlighted by a Nick Rivera 26 yard run which set up MV 7A squad on Lago Vista’s 2 yard line.

From there Nelson Madera would score both a touchdown and the extra point run.

The Vikings were not threatening Mountain Valley’s defense as they could only accumulate 13 yards of offense for this game.

In that first half Rivera was a hard luck player as this athlete returned a punt and interception for a touchdown, and both were called back by a penalty.

The punt return happened first when Rivera would run through the Viking players like a pin ball for 51 yards.

Mountain Valley Coaches discusses with team where the sunken Viking ship went down.

Mountain Valley 8th A squad was all over Lago Vista from the get-go, as their shortest offensive play was an eight yard pass to J.T. Greene, as this Viking team is still trying to find their ship after a blowout, 43-0.

Trenton Lorett, Tristan Chicon, and Jacob Thomas were all ‘smiles’ after beating LV Vikings

A running clock had a better chance of gaining yards on this Hawk defense than this Viking’s offense could muster.

MV was in top form for every facet of this contest, from Special Teams to Offense to Defense, it was all Hawks.

The Vikings average 0.13 yards per carry which would take Lago Vista 76.9230769230769 plays to garner a first down base on that average.

Defensive End Jacob Thomas had one play that he could have taken a handoff, as he was in Lago Vista’s backfield so fast.

“We just went down and dominated them,” Thomas said. “Coaches told us to stay low and we did what they asked.”

Scoring drives were even more impressive. Mountain Valley’s offense had the ball six times and scored on those drives in 10 plays total.

Canyon Lake’s JV beat Wimberley, 25-21, 21-25, 25-23 on Tuesday night to stay unbeaten in District 26-4A play.

Landry Hollums and Faith Hasness after win over Wimberley JV

A hoarse Head Coach Megan Helmey started, “My girls have been working on being mentally tough and you saw how well they carried that out….I have no complaints, Landry Hollums was going all over the place and really stepped up in that last set.”

“We were executing the ball and we knew that Wimberley was going to get the ball over with a game changer with a tip or what they had been doing,” Coach Helmey commented on what was happening in her conversation with the girls during their final time-out. “I am proud of the girls and how they handled it.

The crowd was totally into this game as both schools had a lot of support.

“I came from a 5A school and I had never seen a crowd like that,” Sophomore Kaylie Duke said. “This was awesome….I knew that all of the sports are so important for Canyon Lake and this was so important for our school and our Volleyball team came together.”

Freshman Faith Hasness had a six point serve which started with a 16-17 score in favor of Wimberley to a 22-17 advantage for the Hawks.

“We were talking a lot more and we were playing more consistent,” Hasness said. “That helped us have a good fight and it got us comfortable.”

The 20th ranked Canyon Lake Volleyball team could not stop an avalanche of Texans coming down the mountain as they were stampeded into submission to the #6 Ranked Wimberley team in Texas based on the Texas Girls Coaches Association Poll.

Hawks could not dig out of their hole in a loss to the Texans

This match was over after the first serve as Wimberley was leaving no question to who the #1 team in District 26-4A would be after this evening’s game.

A resounding three game sweep where the first two pivotal games CL was only able to score 14 and 13 points.

Wimberley did not allow Canyon Lake two points on serve but one time and that was way after this match had been decided in the third game while the Texans were holding a 22-14 edge.

Discombobulated would be a word to describe this Hawk team as they continued to slip on this night when the Hawk Gym was full of fans from both towns.
