Halftime: Henry Sibley 35, Hopkins 29

Warriors grind their way to a lead over defending champs

March 27, 2010 at 6:05AM

It has not been pretty, but Henry Sibley has Hopkins off its game. Warriors coach Tom Dasovich believed if his Warriors could make Hopkins a jump shooting team, it would make the Royals less dangerous offensively. So far so good. Hopkins has shot 8-of-22. Henry Sibley has played well despite the absence of 6-8 Mike Rostampour. Two fouls have limited his playing time. Meanwhile, Joe Coleman has been missing for a long stretch since picked up his third foul with 5:31 remaining. The teams have combined for 31 fouls. And the Hopkins bench was assessed a technical foul. Henry Sibley's leading scorer is Dante Grant (13 points).
