Nick Arceo helped pick up the slack, making five 3s for the bulk of his game-high 19 points in the commanding 60-27 win for the host Spartans. His time was even more limited in the second half, as Lathrop (7-1 WAC, 14-7 overall) comfortably led throughout. It’s whatever is best for the team at all times.”Arceo was one of nine different Spartans to score. The Panthers were held without a field goal for an eight-minute stretch in the first half, then went 5 minutes, 23 seconds between field goals in the second half. Lathrop scored the first 12 points in the second quarter, a run capped by Justin Neal’s layup that pushed the Spartans lead to 25-8.
