BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) --- Justin Pippen scored 16 points to lead four in

Cal led by as many as 13 points early in the second half. With less than three
minutes to play, Elis Ralph hit a 3-pointer and Clayton made consecutive layups
in 7-0 spurt that pulled the Tigers to 63-61 with 25 seconds left before the
Golden Bears sealed it from the free-throw line.

help build a 36-27 halftime advantage. The Golden Bears shot just 36% (90 of
