IAABO refresher exam question a few years ago said we stop the count. I still can't find any citations to support this? Can any of you?

Check out case book play 9.10.1SitD. In the ruling, they use the statement
"Preventing opponents to get to the ball by using screening teammates becomes a violation in five seconds if the opponents are attempting to gain control." That's good enough for me. I wouldn't stop a 5-second count as long as the defending player stays within six feet of the ball.
