Warriors add Hilton Armstrong to roster

Team waives forward Earl Pettis to make room on roster

The Santa Cruz Warriors added center Hilton Armstrong to their roster Saturday afternoon, a move which should address the center position quite nicely for the team.

The 6 foot 11 inch Armstrong returns to the team he played for last year and will help complete a roster that previously had Kevin Kotzur filling it at center at 6 feet 9 inches.

This move is a huge improvement for the team, who is also waiting for the return of forwards Joe Alexander and Taylor Griffin who are still recovering from injures.  Both are expected to make their season debuts for Santa Cruz sometime in December. 

Last season, Armstrong averaged 13.4 points and 6.8 rebounds to go along with 2.2 blocks per game. 

Armstrong is expected to make his debut tomorrow night in the second game of a back-to-back against the Austin Toros at Kaiser Permanente Arena.  Tipoff is 6:00 p.m.
