Lathrop High's boys and girls basketball teams are getting reacquainted with Manteca Unified rivals in the Sac-Joaquin Section playoffs. The postseason tips off Monday with out-bracket games, one of them involving two area squads. In Division III boys action, 17th-seeded Lathrop (17-9) makes the short trip to No. 16 Sierra (15-11), the fifth of five qualifiers out of the Valley Oak League.
