Ducks roll to 15th straight win over Bears RECAP | BOX SCORE

EUGENE, Ore. (AP) -- On tape, California gave No. 20 Oregon some
reasons for concern.
But in person, the Golden Bears turned out to be no different than the other Cal teams the Ducks have faced in recent seasons.
Oregon's 86-56 victory Thursday night marked its 15th consecutive win against California and eighth straight at McArthur Court, where the Golden Bears haven't won since Jan. 7, 1993.
Angelina Wolvert scored 16 points and Jamie Craighead scored all
14 of her points in the first half. Kourtney Shreve and Brianne
Meharry each added 11 points for Oregon, which has won five
straight to improve to 9-3 overall and 2-0 in the Pacific-10
Conference.
"We were really nervous about this team when we saw them on film," Craighead said. "We knew we would have to come out and establish dominance right away."
Craighead, the Pac-10's top 3-point shooter, did just that.
She scored 12 of her 14 points with four 3-pointers as the Ducks
bombarded California (4-9, 0-3) from the three-point line, making
seven-of-13 attempts.
In the first half alone, the Ducks connected on 16-of-26 field
goal attempts and scored on their last 11 trips down the court as
they outscored the Golden Bears 23-11 to take a 46-26 lead at the
break.
After California outscored Oregon 6-2 to start the second half,
the Ducks went on an 9-0 run to go up by 25 points, 57-32 and never
trailed by less than 20 points the rest of the way.
"I think our team is very focused on the Pac-10 season,"
Oregon head coach Jody Runge said, "and this week, the home court
advantage."
California, which has lost four of its last five, was led by
Courtney Johnson, who scored 13 points.
