Freshman Breanna Wiseman scored 20 points, and fourth-year starter Shakara Porter narrowly missed a triple-double, as the Lathrop girls basketball team remains undefeated after rolling past visiting West of Tracy on Wednesday, 56-31.

The Spartans (7-0) jumped out to an 18-6 lead and held West (3-5) to six or less points in each of the first three quarters while forcing 15 turnovers in that stretch.

Porter finished with 12 points, eight rebounds and eight steals. Wiseman added nine rebounds, to blocks and two steals to her game-high scoring total.

“We identified what we thought would be our advantage on the inside, and we attacked it with Breanna and Shakara,” Lathrop coach Dwayne Davis said. “We scored 56 points and only took four shots behind the (3-point) arc.”

Jaleiyah Ray returned from injury and chipped in nine points, three steals and two rebounds.

Lathrop begins the Delta Queen Classic at Stagg today against Fairfield.
