What to watch
The Bulldogs host the Spartans in what should be a physical, local tilt. The teams last met Jan. 24, 2020, at Lathrop High School, when Lathrop walked away with a 65-43 win. That history gives Lathrop a recent edge on the scoreboard, but local matchups can turn on a single hot streak or a defensive stand.
