The Carson girls basketball clamped down on defense in the fourth quarter and defeated Banning, 60-47, in a Marine League showdown on Wednesday at Banning High.

Carson (10-3, 2-0) outscored Banning, 19-6, in the fourth quarter, after the teams were tied through three quarters.

"Banning is right there, they are a good team, but I think we wore them down," Carson coach Marcel Sanders said.

Carson held Banning star Stephanie Lopez scoreless in the second half. Lopez finished with 14 points. Carla Barrera had 15 points for Banning (7-7, 0-3).

"We started playing defense (in the fourth quarter)," Sanders said.

Alisha Belt had 15 points and 10 rebounds, Chante Miles had 14 points, six rebounds and six assists and Daphne Rabot had 13 points for Carson. Janitah Iamaleava added 10 points and 11 rebounds for Carson, which hosts Washington in a key league game on Friday.
