ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) -- Lamond Murray scored 13 of his 23 points in
the second half and Jason Kidd had 22 points and eight assists
Sunday to lead No. 19 California to an 89-80 victory over No. 23
Cincinnati.
	Kidd made four free throws in the final 1:43 and Murray and
Monty Buckley also delivered key baskets down the stretch as the
Golden Bears (18-5) won for the eighth time in nine games.
	Cincinnati (17-8) played its fifth consecutive game against a
Top 25 opponent and fell to 2-3 in those outings despite getting a
career-high 26 points from Damon Flint and 17 from fellow freshman
Dontonio Wingfield.
	California shot 57 percent from the field and also outscored
Cincinnati 16-5 from the foul line where Kidd was 7-for-7,
including the four he made after the Bears' lead was trimmed to
79-73.
	Ryan Jamison scored 18 points for California and Buckley and
Michael Stewart each had 10.
	Cincinnati shot only 38 percent from the field in the first
half, but Flint's 15 points and defense on Kidd helped the Bearcats
keep pace. It was 36-36 at the half, and neither team could gain
the upper hand until Kidd sparked a 9-2 spurt that put California
up 60-53 with 12:47 to go.
	The Bearcats never drew closer than six points the rest of the
way. Monty Buckley's layup and two free throws by Kidd hiked Cal's
lead back to 10, 83-73, with 1:43 left.
	Cincinnati, 3-6 against Top 25 opponents, was hurt by the lack
of offense from Flint in the first 14 minutes of the second half.
The 6-5 freshman didn't make his first basket until just over five
minutes were left, although he did finish with 11 after
intermission.
	No. 5 Louisville and No. 13 Temple met in the second game of the
7Up Shootout doubleheader at Orlando Arena.
