The hard fought game against the Boerne Greyhounds keeps the Hawks in good position for the district run. Canyon Lake won the match in four games, 25-17 ,18 -25, 25-22 and 26-24.

The Hawks came out on fire when they jumped out to a 13-6 lead after a rally off of Marisa Ellis serves. The tight game was not tight the rest of the game.

Canyon Lake enjoyed ten point leads throughout the game, finishing 25-17.

Kendall Felps was very instrumental in the victory setting the stage for the contest.

“Losing was not an option,” the Junior Outside Hitter Felps admonished. “This was an exciting game and we need to build up wins.”

Zach Henshaw leaping into the record books.

Canyon Lake  improve to 3-0 after winning an instant classic against the Sealy Tigers, Friday night at Hawk Stadium, 38-34.

Quite frankly, the ReSporter does not know where to start…how bout with the Head Coach.

“We are a ‘real’ football team,” Matt Monzingo said proudly. “You can’t get a better feeling as a coach…the kids are the ones that work we just act like their jockey.”

What about Zach Henshaw? “Awesome!! The offense was awesome, they (Sealy) have a great football team, but we made one more play tonight.”

The Canyon Lake Junior Varsity won Thursday night 32-8 in Sealy Stadium.

The Hawks jumped out into the lead scoring 20 points in the first quarter.

“We scored on the first play of the game on a 60 yard pass from Conner Ricker to Isaiah Gutierrez,” Head Coach Trent Dunavant said. “The defense gave us the ball back, and after driving the ball down the field on the ground, we scored again on a 10 yard pass from Ricker to Andrew Riali.”

Austin Denton was good on the point after attempts and barely had time to rest as Gutierrez  took the Sealy Tiger punt back 55 yards for another touchdown.

The second quarter slowed down for the Hawks and the Tigers held serve and kept CL out of the endzone.

Head Coach Matt Monzingo

Canyon Lake had their worst offensive game last season in Sealy. The Hawks only totaled  65 total yards and no other CL team in the last three years have had a game as anemic than that night.

The offensive and defensive line controlled the trenches for Sealy and finished the game for a 33-6 victory.

“We are better mentally,” Head Coach Matt Monzingo said. “The players have put more sweat and have a bigger investment in this season.”

Head Coach Nicole Creek with her two daughters

The CLHS Volleyball team will start the District games this Friday     and The ReSporter wants to see where Coach Nicole Creek is with the team for the game this Friday at the Hawk gym.

ReSporter: How do you plan to see the team that swept Llano after the first game was played?

Coach Creek: “I hope that the girls see for themselves that they have to jump up early on teams, especially at home and have energy and enthusiasm from the beginning. I think they see this now.”

Middle Hitter Amber Ramsey

Canyon Lake Volleyball team overcame first game jitters and won the last three games to win the match against Llano at Hawk gym.

The games would give you the idea that Llano would be the dominant team, 19-25, 26-24, 25-21, and 25-19.

The Hawks could not get out of the daze they were in to start the game and only had one rally of four points. The problem was the rally was on their last serve after being down 15-24.

One of four acrobatic catches from Receiver Quinn Pike

The Canyon Lake Hawks are 2-0 for the first time in the history of the school and La Vernia did not have the Hawks as a homecoming game.

The stars were bright and gave the radiance for what could be a special year, in the 34-23 victory over the La Vernia Bears last Friday night at Bear stadium.

Two years ago, the Bears were doing what all opponents were doing and planning their homecoming dance at the expense of Canyon Lake. The problem? The Hawks were never invited to the party.

Gifts are the order of the day when Christmas comes around each year. The Canyon Lake Freshman team acted out the Santa character as they handed out plenty of gifts to the Bears from La Vernia last Thursday night at Hawk stadium.

The Hawks evened the score in the second quarter with a 32 yard drive at the end of the second quarter. The score, with twelve seconds remaining in the quarter gave the team hope going into the second stanza.

Shane Relkin started the drive on a 13 yard run setting the offense on the 19 yard line. After a five yard loss CL was looking at a third and 15 yard challenge.

Cole Kelly answered with a 14 yard reception from Skyler Tschoepe, needing only one yard for the first. Tschoepe responded with a QB sneak on the seven yard line.

Running Back Karl Weidner gets yardage on first scoring drive.

The Canyon Lake Hawks Junior Varsity improved their record to 2-0 after making the game much more entertaining than the fans were wanting. The Hawks held on for a 18-14 victory in their first home game. The balanced attack of the Hawks kept the visiting Bears guessing all night long.

On CL’s second possession the Hawks drove 64 yards on just five plays. The drive had three runs from Karl Weidner for 18 yards. The runs set up two pass plays to Isaiah Gutierrez for 46 yards and the first score.

The next Canyon Lake drive finished on the Bear’s six yard line, but the home team could not capitalize on the Bear’s fumble on their 35 yard line. The red zone was not good to the Hawks with an incomplete pass from the six yard line went awry.
