Canyon Lake Hawks continued their dominance over the Billies winning their third game in a row on Senior Night at Hawk stadium, 35-7.

The Hawks have three wins over a total of one team in the short history…..Fredericksburg!!

After a first year loss by 51 points, the Hawks have now pummeled the Billies for the third time and improved their record to 7-2, which is also a record for the most wins in a season.

It took a while for CL to not have self inflicted wounds, as the first quarter started to look like the last two games where turnovers were the norm.

A fumble on the first drive and then an interception with the second drive stopped a possible two scores and leaving the Billies squarely within smelling distance.

Both turnovers were inside the Red Zone where the Hawks had suffered in their earlier losses.

Senior Quinn Pike stepped up finishing a three play 58 yard drive for the first CL score. The 44 yards pass and run was a thing of beauty as the Billie defender was left holding nothing but air. (more…)

The Hawks Freshman were blown away literally as the winds from the North played havoc for both teams last Thursday night at Hawk Stadium.

Canyon Lake took advantage of the wind first as the Fredericksburg center sent the ball past the quarterback and what started with the ball on the 34 yard line the Hawks recovered the ball on the eight and ready for the short drive.

The play set the Billies back 26 yards. Two Hayden Dubois runs later CL had their 6-0 lead.

“We came ready to play we just had too many mistakes,” Head Coach Brian Owens said. “We weren’t handling the middle of the line and we had to make the most of it.”

“Give it up for the offensive line, but they were better to the bitter end,” Coach Owens continued. “This team is really special…they play together more than any freshman team I have had.”

The good news for the Billies, if you don’t pass much, then you might be able to minimize the wind by running the ball.

“We stunk it up,” Head Coach Matt Monzingo ended and started this

week’s article the same way. “I’m disappointed we did not take care of business.”

Canyon Lake now is in the position of needing help from other teams in order to have a chance for the playoffs.

“I don’t like my destiny in someone’s hands,” Coach Monzingo said. “We were not focused…we had a team meeting on Monday, and the kids thought it was going to be easy.”

Canyon Lake Hawks go back to the drawing board as Boerne turns mistakes into touchdowns, as CL loses second consecutive game this season at Boerne stadium, 35-14.

What started as a nice looking game, suddenly changed in the second half to a Greyhound beating.

The Hawks started the game with another patented drive, as CL drove 80 yards on 11 plays and took the early lead, 7-0 after the Jake Robinson point after attempt.

The drive had a lot of Zach Henshaw, as the Senior running back accounted for 73 of the 80 yards for the first score. Henshaw had 53 yards rushing and 20 yards receiving on the drive.

Canyon Lake had two third down plays and both were within three yards for a first down or touchdown.

BOERNE, Texas –The Canyon Lake Freshmen Hawks took a cue from the New York Jets and used their own version of “pound and ground” to rough up the Boerne Greyhounds 26-7 Thursday night to even their season record at 4-4 and 3-1 in district play.

From the first kick and even walking off the bus the Hawks used a physical, suffocating defense and a powerful, efficient run game to win in Boerne for the second time this season.

“We knew we were going to beat them when we walked off the bus,” defensive lineman Dallas Sandau said. “But at the same time we knew they were going to come at us pretty hard because they wanted revenge, so we had to be ready to go.”

The Hawks were indeed ready to go and used their “pound” first on the defensive side of the ball to hold the Greyhounds to 60 total yards and three 1st downs in the first half.

Canyon Lake Junior Varsity were beat by the Greyhounds from Boerne last Thursday at Hawk stadium, 28-7.

The Hawks were run over by a Greyhound by the tune of 276 yards or over eight yards per carry. The game continued to go downhill for both the offense and defense as the game continued in the last two quarters.

Canyon Lake scored on their second drive of the game by going 78 yards on 11 plays to take the lead, 7-6 over Boerne.

The drive was highlighted with a 17 yard pass to Michael Sheffeild and finished with a nifty 20 yard run from Quarterback Connor Ricker.

The Hawks would not score again as they came up empty on their next seven drives for the endzone.

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.

Canyon Lake is coming off their first loss of the year and Head Coach Matt

Monzingo took some time to answer some questions about Wimberley and the upcoming Boerne game.

ReSporter: How are you helping the players deal with their first loss of the year?

Coach Monzingo: “They’ve got to get over it…there is not one thing they can do about it and they have got to get back into the zone before this week’s game.”
