Canyon Lake found themselves at the North Pole on Tuesday night in their games with La Vernia Bears.

In fact, La Vernia could change their mascot name to Polar Bears based on how cold the shooting was for how the Hawks played in their games at Hawk Gym.

The Freshman team was ‘As Cold as Ice’…sung by Foreigner several years ago scoring just two points in their first quarter and with seven total points by halftime.

The Junior Varsity did not do much better, finishing with 27 points in their game, just one more point scored by their Freshman counterparts.

Canyon Lake’s Varsity team fared a little better, but missed lay ups during the fourth quarter that doomed a game that had just 13 points in their two middle quarters.

The Varsity Hawks did speed the game up with a press during the fourth quarter,  that did lead to several chances of closing the gap, but their end result was no different than two other games that had teams with Hawks spelled across their jerseys.

Missed shots and opportunities were in abundance on this night. Canyon Lake’s final stats was dismal when combining all three teams:

Team            FG Percentages    Three Point Goals     Free Throws
Freshman        10-46   21.7%     0-5   00.0%            6-22   27.3%
Junior Varsity   8-36   22.2%     1-7   14.3%           10-20   50.0%

Combined        33-129  25.6%     5-25  20.0%           23-55   41.8%

The ReSporter saw some Polar Bears in route to the Hawk gym after leaving.

Global Warming has been confirmed a hoax the Ice Age is another matter however.

District MVP was LB Alden Mann from Wimberley.

CL Hawks Boys and Girls Basketball Week’s Recap

The Canyon Lake Ladies have had another successful week in hoopsville.

Since our last recap, CL Girls have won a tournament and both single games last week over Devine and Pleasanton.

This team is now on a seven game winning streak which is a high water mark for this school.

In our last wrap up ‘Percentages’ was talked about and here is what the Hawks had two weeks ago compared to today:

 Team Total                      Shots       3Point       Free Throws
 Percentages Two Weeks Ago      36.7%        32.9%        39.2%
 Percentages Now                33.4%        31.4%        42.8%

All those percentages have gone down except for Canyon Lake’s free throws.

Shooting is important, but this team relies on three other items that have resulted in their bottom line: Winning.

Defense has been top notch throughout in all their games thus far. That one result can cover a multitude of shortcomings in a game. This Hawk team is a testament to that truism.

Another positive is how much the Hawks are cutting down on those pesky turnovers. Every time a turnover is avoided will give Canyon Lake another chance to score.

One more positive this team possesses is their knack for offensive rebounding. That one stat will allow that shooting percentage to actually be higher than it shows.

Canyon Lake averages right at 14 offensive rebounds per game which might be their most important number in that stat box.

Confidence is sprouting with each win and the emergence of Sophomore Kyndall Drum will pay dividends when district starts.

(more…)

Canyon Lake Boy’s Basketball won their first two games in the Randolph Tournament on Friday and will finish Saturday with games against Navarro (11am) and Randolph (2pm).

This Hawk team is now 8-6 this season after starting 0-4 a few weeks ago. That would equate to winning eight of their last 10 games.

CL’s game with Nixon-Smiley had 11 different players register a point as the Hawks coasted to a 31 point win.

In their second game, Canyon Lake won, 63-52 over SA Lutheran who had beaten Randolph earlier in this tournament.

Caleb Kreiger (21), Doug Hubnik (14) , and Andrew Rial (10) all finished in double figures scoring.

The ReSporter will have full write-ups after this tournament concludes today.

Canyon Lake (13-2) takes care of business in win over Pleasanton, 48-25 last Friday night on the road.

The Hawks have now won seven games in a row for the first time in CL history.

Katie Williams was the only Hawk in double figures scoring with 16 while Amber Ramsey and Kyndall Drum both pitched in with eight points a piece.

Seven CL players got into the scoring column in this game as the Hawks are now 11 games over .500 which is also a new standard never reached before.

This was also the eighth game that CL has kept their opponent under 30 points in a game.

For the season CL’s defense is giving up just 34 points per contest.

Canyon Lake Varsity has made up their four game losing streak to start this season when they went on the road to Comfort and won a hard fought battle, 46-42.

While, the Junior Varsity and Freshman, able to come away with a victories after being without a game for a week.

Getting cobwebs cleared was good for this impressive group of players.

The Freshman took no prisoners in their contest while enjoying a runaway win by 27 points.

“We started the game by playing at a much higher tempo and moved the ball around better than any game this year,” Freshman Coach John Barthels said. “We have been focusing our practices on defense and moving the ball around…making good passes and we were able to do both tonight.”

Ten different players had a ball go through the hoop in this game.

“Finding open players allows more of our kids to get involved and gives us more options in our offense,” Coach Barthels ended.

“It was good to win a close game,” JV Coach Brian Hooper said. “Comfort did a good job defending our offense. We stepped up our press and were able to cause turnovers for easy baskets.”

Coach Hooper will not allow this team to rest on laurels as he closed, “We need to work on finishing around the rim and eliminating turnovers.”

Canyon Lake Varsity has now won six of their last eight games with both losses coming from Randolph, who will also be hosting CL in this weekends tournament.
