Cal rides Nojus Indrusaitis' 30 points to victory over Radford

Jake Wilkins made like his Hall of Fame father on a key alley-oop dunk, Nojus Indrusaitis poured in a game-high 30 points and Cal pulled away from Radford late for an 84-70 nonconference victory Wednesday night in Berkeley, Calif. Wilkins finished with 13 points and Michael Cooper added 16 off the bench for the Golden Bears (2-0), who struggled with the Highlanders (0-2) until the final 12 minutes. Frederik Erichsen produced a team-high 16 points for Radford, which had opened its season across the bay with a 76-62 loss at San Francisco on Monday. Down by 45-37 at the break and 48-37 in the second minute of the second half, Radford used a 14-4 burst to get within one on a Tristan Gross layup at the 12:37 mark. A steal by Parby Kabamba gave the visitors a chance to take their first lead since the opening minutes, but Cooper swiped a Gross pass and lobbed to Wilkins, who slammed down a dunk that got the Golden Bears rolling. Wilkins is the son of Dominique Wilkins, who starred at Georgia before beginning an NBA career that featured nine All-Star appearances. Son Jake began his college career with the Bulldogs before transferring

Newcomers shine as Cal crushes Division II Adams State

Michael Cooper and Nojus Indrusaitis combined for 44 points in their Cal basketball debuts, Sammie Yeanay added a career-best 21 and the Golden Bears ran away from Division II Adams State of Colorado en route to a 115-86 nonconference romp Monday night in Berkeley, Calif. Cooper had 24 points off the bench and Indrusaitis contributed 20 to the cause for Cal. Yeanay, in his second year in the Cal program after starting his college career at Grand Canyon, and Indrusaitis, who played last season at Pitt, had 15 points apiece in the first half as the Golden Bears quickly left the Grizzlies in the dust. Adams State hung within 13-10 four minutes into the game before Cal used an 18-4 run to build a 17-point lead. Yeanay, Indrusaitis and Cooper, a transfer from Wright State, all had 3-pointers in the spurt. A 3-pointer by Nathan Day had the Grizzlies within 36-23 just past the midpoint of the half before Cal went on another run, this one a 13-2 flurry that broke the game wide open. Jovani Ruff had three consecutive Golden Bears hoops, including two dunks, in the runaway. Cal, a 22-win team last season, was more than halfway to

Fresh off 115-point showing, Cal gears up for Radford

Cal hopes to build momentum from its 115-point barrage in its opening game when the Golden Bears meet Radford in nonconference action Wednesday night in Berkeley, Calif. Michael Cooper had 24 points, Sammie Yeanay 21 and Nojus Indrusaitis 20 in Monday's 115-86 victory over Division II Adams State in a game in which Cal set a school record for points in a first half with 66. The previous mark was 63 against U.S. International in 1990. Cal coach Mark Madsen noted afterward that the fast pace at which Adams State played should benefit his Golden Bears moving forward. "We need to be able to win (playing any style)," Madsen told reporters. "We need to win the games that are slug-it-out, 10-yards-in-a-cloud-of-dust. We have to be able to win those games with execution, with precise sets, which we have. "We also have to be able to play fast. We have to be able to play against shifting defenses. We have to play if a team tries to speed us up." Radford couldn't get its running game in gear in its opener Monday across the bay against San Francisco. The Highlanders had more turnovers (19) than assists (14) and took just 50
