Box Score
BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) - Reshea Bristol scored eight of her
game-high 21
points in the final two minutes as No. 22 Arizona beat California 64-58
Saturday.
Reserve Angela Lackey added 13 points for the Wildcats (24-6, 13-5
Pac-10), who finished tied for second in the conference despite winning
just
four of their last seven. The 24 wins by the Wildcats is a school
record.
Even with the shaky final stretch, Arizona will likely receive a fourth
straight invitation Sunday to the NCAA Tournament.
Kenya Corley scored 18 points to lead California (11-17, 6-12). Shavaki
Jackson added 12 points and nine rebounds for the Bears, who led for
most of the game before being outscored 13-2 in the final 2:26.
Arizona fell behind by as many as nine in the second half and trailed
56-51 before Bristol's free-throw shooting helped the Wildcats avoid the
upset.
Bristol made all six of her free throws in the final two minutes and
added a layup at the buzzer as Arizona defeated California for the 10th
straight
time.
Arizona held the Bears' leading scorer, Paige Bowie, to seven points on
2-of-13 shooting and forced three turnovers in the final 90 seconds to
secure
the win.
The Wildcats shot just 45.9 percent from the floor against the Bears,
but dominated in rebounds (35-26) and at the free-throw line. Arizona
made 28
of 37 free throws overall compared to California's 8-of-11 from the
line.
