SEATTLE (AP) -- Lamond Murray scored 20 of his 22 points in the
second half and No. 16 California broke open a close game in the
final three minutes for a 62-56 Pac-10 victory over Washington on
Thursday night.
	Murray's performance came in a game when Jason Kidd, the Golden
Bears' sensational sophomore guard, struggled shooting the ball.
Kidd finished with 12 points on 2-for-12 shooting, including 1-of-7
from 3-point range.
	Cal (13-4, 22-6) will wind up its regular season at Washington
State on Saturday. The Bears are expected to be chosen for the NCAA
Tournament for the second straight season Sunday.
	Maurice Woods led Washington (3-14, 5-21) with 18 points.
Teammate Amir Rashad added 11.
	Cal trailed 26-24 at halftime after being behind by as many as
11 points in the opening half. And the Huskies were still in the
game after a pair of free throws by Sam Allen tied the score at 49
with 3:08 left.
	But the Bears scored the next six points on a pair of dunks by
Monty Buckley and two free throws by Kidd for a 55-49 lead with
2:11 to go.
	Scott Didrickson hit a 3-pointer for the Huskies with 1:53 left,
but Cal sealed its win on a 12-foot jump shot by Murray and a layup
by Akili Jones for a 59-52 lead with 1:12 left.
	Murray played only nine minutes in the first half because of
foul trouble. In the second half, he made 8 of 14 shots, including
a pair of 3-pointers.
	Washington, suffering through the school's worst basketball
season in history, looked like it was going to score its second
upset of the season in the first half. The Huskies beat Arizona in
Seattle on Feb. 5.
	The Huskies had a 14-1 run and led 26-15 after Woods' 12-footer.
The run actually featured a five-point play by Washington; a
3-pointer by Jamie Booker and two Woods free throws after he was
fouled by Michael Stewart while fighting for rebounding position on
the play.
	Cal went 8:27 between field goals. But the Bears came back and
scored the final nine points of the first half with Kidd hitting
his only 3-pointer with 37 seconds left.
