Head Coach Matt Monzingo Takes Comal ISD Athletic Director Job

From the Comal Independent School District web site.

Head Coach Matt Monzingo

“Matt Monzingo has been named the new Comal ISD Athletic Director effective at the end of May. Monzingo takes over for Jim Rodrigue, who passed away after a short illness in April. Monzingo has been the head football coach and athletic coordinator at Canyon Lake High School since it opened in 2007 and previously held the same position at Pflugerville Connally High School from 1996-2007.”

Canyon Lake Head Coach Matt Monzingo will be stepping down after 31 years of walking the sidelines.

“I told the football team yesterday,” Coach Monzingo said. “I have left three high school jobs and this one was a very….very tough thing to do.”

Coach Monzingo brought Canyon Lake up in a very….very quick manner. The Hawks won after just their second year and had a winning record and into the playoffs.

Bracken Christian Spring Football Report

The Bracken Christian Warriors started the process of replacing seven

Bracken Christian Spring Football has Started

Seniors from their final four team last season.

Players who lost their playing eligibility will result in many new faces in the trenches for the next season starting fall practice in 11 weeks.

Lost?
Grady Achilles
Peter Corey
Jordon McDaniel
Austin Wilkinson
Ty Zunker
Kevin Knapick
Ehren Jacobson

That is a pretty good roster of players that contributed many points, yards, touchdowns, tackles, and extra points.

What are the expectations for this upcoming season with that many players gone from the sideline? Coach Fields and his staff were busy checking out what might be in store when spring practice started last week and the evaluation process got started.

“We are going to be big,” Head Coach Lloyd Fields started. “There will no year after this one, for the Seniors…and we have two players that can’t go full as they are recovering from injuries.”

Two players being held out is not uncommon for football, but when the game is six-man then that can represent one third of your offense or defense.

Joel Butler was one of the players that found himself in the thick of replacing an All-State Kicker and Punter in Kevin Knapick.

“Joel (Butler) has won the extra point job,” Coach Fields said. “ We are still seeing who can win the kick-off position.”

Bracken Christian Track Team Aims to Run

Not to take anything away from Senior Kevin Knapick, but Bracken Christian will be

concentrating more on the Track than the Field part at the State Meet starting this Friday and Saturday in Waco.

Bracken will be competing in the 2A Division and the top four finishers qualified for the right to represent their school before the school year closes.

BCS will have 12 students vying for the chance to bring home more hardware from this track season.

Katy Wilmotte finished first in the 3200 Meter Run at the Regional Meet. Her second place finish in the 1600 Meter Run will also allow her to garner more points for the Team.

Wilmotte finished with a time of 13:09 last year competing as a Sophomore at the State Meet and she qualified two weeks ago with a best time of 12:53 for this season.

The good news is that the 3200 and 1600 Meter Runs will be run on two different days giving those runners time to recoup from that draining race.

“Katy finished third at State last year,” Head Coach Terri Sanders started. “She knows what she is capable of doing and with the right stride and with her confidence will allow her to finish strong.”

Canyon Lake Scores in both Girls and Boys State Track Meet

Canyon Lake has another first when both Jordan Anderson and Marisa Ellis

placed sixth in their respective events this past weekend in Austin for the 3A-State Track Meet.

Marisa Ellis’ event (Triple Jump) was scheduled for Friday night and Ellis responded with a sixth place finish. Her 36-00.50, jump was off her previous best mark in the Region Meet two weeks ago, but the Junior can now concentrate on next season knowing what is possible as a Senior.

In our article earlier last week, you would have read where Ellis is not going to scratch and she followed through with her performance and not having a scratch on any of her jumps.

Ellis first jump was 34-07.75 and that had her in sixth place after the first round, where she ended up after her sixth jump.

The jump that solidified her placing was on her fourth try when she cleared 35-04.75, which had her a full foot further than the other three participants vying for placing in this event.

Ellis had her personal best jump two weeks ago when she cleared 37-04.50 in Corpus Christi.

This was the second year in a row for Canyon Lake Girls to score points at the State Track Meet. Jessica Cunningham competed in the Pole Vault last year for the Hawks.

Jordan Anderson was also scoring for the Hawks as this Junior improved his 400 Meter Dash time by almost a full second from his previous record two weeks ago in Corpus.

Bracken Christian Finishes Strong at TAPPS State Track Meet

Bracken Christian took 12 athletes to Waco last weekend for the TAPPS State Track

Congratulations to the 12 All State Tracksters

Congratulations to the 12 All State Tracksters

Meet and finished within the top 10 in both the girls and boys team.

Grady Achilles came into the meet with the goal of defending his 100 and 200 Meter Dash. For the third time!

Mission accomplished, as the Senior finished his athletic  career for BCS as one if not the best male athlete for the Warriors.

“Grady has determination,” Head Coach Terri Sanders said. “He is very confident in his ability.”

Achilles seemed to be reaching this year’s meet without the consistency he had enjoyed in previous State Meets.

CL Track: Marisa Ellis, She has a lot of Nerve

Marisa Ellis will be Canyon Lake’s second participant for Boys and Girl’s Track Team

Marisa Ellis finishing Strong

this week as she attempts to Triple Jump her way for a medal in Austin.

Marisa, at our last writing was on a mission to have a personal best jump and clear the 37 foot mark. The distance had haunted this Junior for two years when she went to the Region Meet as a Freshman for Midlothian jumping just shy of that mark.

The distance was finally reached on her second to last jump in last weeks Region Meet in Corpus Christi when she hit 37’4.5”.

“I had jumped 36’8” and was in first for a while,” Ellis recounted. “Then two girls beat my jump on the second to last jump and I was in third.”

No pressure for Ellis as she still had two more jumps to get into second or first place and make the next round in Austin.

CL Track: Jordan Anderson, Making Your Goals come True

Jordan Anderson has scored 250 points for the Hawks this Track Season.

State Bound Jordan Anderson running 400 Meter at Corpus Christi

That number could of been higher if he competed in all the events he was qualified to run in Corpus Christi Regional Meet last week.

So seven meets and 250 points with one more chance to add to that total this next week in Austin. Pretty impressive for any athlete.

“I felt myself breaking down,” Anderson started. “So, I decided to put all my eggs in two baskets, the 400 and High Jump.”

Anderson had qualified for five events and before the Regional Meet he had whittled down his events to only two the 400 Meter Dash and High Jump.

The prelims in the Regional Meet would have the participants running just once and based on their time, they would know if they would get to run in the finals the next day.

In Anderson’s heat he found himself in sixth place and he had to wake up in time to be able to qualify for the finals.
