Cal Poly Mustangs @ UCLA Bruins
Janiah Barker records her 4th double-double of the season as No. 1 UCLA defeats Cal Poly 69-37
LOS ANGELES -- — Janiah Barker had her fourth double-double of the season with 12 points and 13 rebounds and top-ranked UCLA led throughout in its 69-37 victory over Cal Poly on Monday night at Pauley Pavilion.
Londynn Jones and Angela Dugalic also scored 12 points in UCLA's first home game since it took over the No. 1 spot in the Associated Press Top 25 poll on Nov. 25.
Timea Gardiner added 11 points for the Bruins (11-0), who were missing leading scorer and rebounder Lauren Betts. The junior center, third in the Big Ten in scoring at 19.8 points per game, was sidelined due to a lower leg injury.
Mary Carter scored 11 points for Cal Poly (4-6), which has dropped four of its last five.
Cal Poly: The Mustangs were much closer in their second trip this season to Los Angeles. They lost 90-35 at No. 7 USC on Nov. 9.
UCLA: It is the second straight season and third time in coach Cori Close's 14 seasons in Westwood that the Bruins have won their first 11 games.
Annika Shah's 3-pointer pulled the Mustangs within 25-16 early in the second quarter before the Bruins went on 12-2 run that included a pair of 3-pointers by Dugalic.
The Mustangs shot 25.9% from the field (14 of 54) and were 2 of 15 in the fourth quarter.
Both teams return to action on Friday. Cal Poly hosts Seattle University while UCLA faces Creighton in the Invisalign Bay Area Women’s Basketball Classic in San Francisco.
