Hopkins Girls Basketball Advances
The Royals advanced to the Section 6AAAA semifinal game with a 62 - 47 win over Wayzata.
The Hopkins Royals overpowered the Wayzata Trojans 62 - 47 on Saturday afternoon at Osseo High School.
The Royals' pressure defense and driving, slashing offensive style proved too much for Wayzata, which hung within 10 points for the majority of the game before Hopkins pulled away late in the second half.
With the win, the Royals advance to the Section 6AAAA championship game against either Minneapolis South or rival Minnetonka on Wednesday evening at Osseo.
