BERKELEY, Calif. -- Sure, Charlie Moore has heard of Shareef Abdur-Rahim. When told he had just broken the former NBA stars California freshman record at this early stage of the season, he was thrilled.I was like, `Oh, wow, thats a pretty big accomplishment, he said, smiling.The Golden Bears needed somebody to carry the load with three starters and key playmakers sitting out injured and a cold first half.Moore scored 38 points to top Abdur-Rahims mark of 33 points set in November 1995, Stephen Domingo hit a go-ahead 3-pointer with 3:10 left in overtime, and short-handed No. 25 Cal held off UC Irvine 75-65 on Wednesday night.Kameron Rooks tip-in with 23 seconds left in regulation tied the game and Jaron Martin failed to get off a shot for the Anteaters (1-2). Rooks scored a career-high 15 points to go with eight rebounds as Cal extended its home winning streak at Haas Pavilion to 21.Martin scored a career-best 26 points with three key baskets over the final 6:11 of regulation.Hes been on this stage for a long time, coach Cuonzo Martin said. Hes played in big games since he was a freshman in high school. Hes not fazed by this atmosphere.Cal (2-0) missed three starters because of injuries: preseason All-America Ivan Rabb (toe), Jabari Bird (back spasms) and Columbia transfer Grant Mullins (neck strain). Martin hopes to have all three back for the next game.We dont want to have any excuses after the game, we have key guys out, he said. Probably one of the better wins of my coaching career, seeing guys compete and battle and not make excuses.Moores three-point play with 1:53 left in regulation pulled Cal to 62-60. Martin missed a 3 on the other end and a jumper in the paint with 44 seconds remaining and Cal had one more chance with 35.7 seconds left.Its unbelievable, Rooks said. Charlies a great player. In practice you can see how hard he works, very scrappy.Moore shot 10 for 20 from the field with three 3-pointers and made 15 of 17 free throws. Domingo finished with 11 points and nine rebounds.Cal overcame a drought of 10:33 without a basket spanning the halves before Moores 3-pointer at the 17:22 mark of the second half.The Bears missed seven straight shots late in the first half, 9 of 10 and 14 of 16, going without a field goal for the final 7:55 of the half after Domingos 3-pointer.Moore made his first three shots with two 3s to score eight of Cals initial 11 points. At halftime, the BearsCals Sam Singer shot 1 for 7 in the first half and missed five of his six 3-point tries as Cal shot 26.1 percent to trail 31-23 at halftime.BIG PICTUREUC Irvine: Brandon Smith added a key block against the 7-foot-1 Rooks late. ... The Anteaters didnt commit their first turnover until 3:10 before halftime after Cal already had seven. ... Both teams already had a common opponent with lopsided victories against South Dakota State. ... The Anteaters havent beaten Cal since Dec. 2, 2000.California: The Bears unbeaten run at home dates to March 1, 2015. ... Cal leads the series 7-2 and has won the last four meetings. ... The Bears held South Dakota State to 28.6 percent shooting in an 82-53 season-opening win Friday.BACK TO THE BAYSeventh-year Irvine coach Russell Turner, a former Golden State Warriors assistant from 2004-10 who worked under Don Nelson and also coached at Stanford with Mike Montgomery, brought his 9-year-old son, Darius, along on the trip. The fourth-grader sat through study table and took a campus tour at Cal, then was on the bench during warmups.Hes counting curse words. I owe him a quarter for each of them, Turner said. It might be expensive. Im trying to break my NBA habits.UP NEXTUC Irvine: The Anteaters will host Damon Stoudamire-coached Pacific on Saturday.California: Plays San Diego State on Monday at the Sacramento Kings new Golden 1 Center.

Their experience showed Tuesday as the No. 10 Badgers blunted a Saint Louis surge to win 63-57 and advance to face West Virginia in Wednesdays finals of the Cancun Challenge. Tarvarius Moore Hoodie .Y. - Rob Manfred was promoted Monday to Major League Baseballs chief operating officer, which may make him a candidate to succeed Bud Selig as commissioner. Dante Pettis Hoodie . PETERSBURG, Fla. Who could have expected this?Going into Sunday, not even Juan Martin del Potro, his career ravaged by wrist injuries, thought he could summon the kind of consistent, forceful tennis capable of tossing Novak Djokovic from the Rio Olympics singles draw. Del Potro admitted as much after playing one of the best matches of his career under a dark evening sky: I didnt expect to win, the Argentine said after his raucous 7-6 (4), 7-6(2), upset over Djokovic, the worlds top-ranked male player by a wide margin.This was a match significant on many levels.It showed that del Potro -- one of tennis great talents and winner of the 2009 US Open -- was rounding into form after spending the past several years largely watching from the sidelines.It showed that Djokovic, far and away the best player in mens tennis since 2011, is maybe, just maybe, losing a little firmness on his solid grip over the game.And for Andy Murray, the upset led to a simple revelation: Suddenly devoid of his most potent nemesis -- a man who the irrepressible Brit has lost to in 16 of their past 19 matches -- this tournament is now his to lose.Sunday evenings turn of events was unforgettable. While Djokovic had suffered an ugly upset early at Wimbledon, losing to American journeyman Sam Querrey, it seemed like hed built back confidence by winning the Toronto tour stop in late July. But from the beginning of this Olympic match he seemed the lesser player. Del Potro served solidly, kept his backhand in play and absolutely dominated with his favorite shot: a forehand that he consistently poleaxed with such power that his opponent, among the games best-ever movers, was constantly wrong-footed.In the end, del Potro hit 29 forehand winners. Djokovic struck seven. The final point featured a sequence symbolized the whole affair: Del Potro hit a scorching forehand down the line and drew a weak reply. The lanky Argentine then wheeled back and hit nearly the same shot, only this time crosscourt. It struck the net, but was traveling with so much heavy force that it popped onto his opponents side. Gamee.dddddddddddd Set. Match. New tournament.The crowd, which had sung and clapped and danced all night in a way that made Centre Court feel like a stadium hosting soccers World Cup, once again went apoplectic. Del Potro and Djokovic -- who played a similarly stirring match for the bronze medal in London, with the Argentinian winning then too -- embraced at net. As Djokovic left the court, his face flashed with a look of agonized disappointment and he appeared to be crying.One can reliably assume that Murray, the singles medal winner at the 2012 London games, wasnt shedding any teams. He survived the day, easing through a 6-3, 6-2 win over Serbias Viktor Troicki on a wind-swept afternoon. There are no unnerving threats in his half of the draw. The highest seeded is Frances Gael Monfils, ranked 11th on the ATP tour. Murray has won four of their six matches, and the talented Frenchman has a penchant for crumbling on the biggest stages.With Djokovic out of the way, the Olympic draws upper half is now led by Rafael Nadal, who on Sunday tore through Argentinas Frederico Delbonis, 6-2, 6-1. But Nadal of late has been a shadow of his former self. Nursing an injured wrist, he hasnt played a tournament since June. Its not too much to say that if Del Potro continues showing the form he did against Djokovic, he may well offer Murray his sternest test.After his match against Troicki, Murray admitted to being nervous before his match began -- less because this was the Olympics than the fact he hadnt played competitively since winning Wimbledon on July 10, hadnt performed at a hard court tournament since losing early at the Miami Open in March.Having the Olympics come so soon after Wimbledon for me, it may have been easy to have a bit of a lull, but thats not going to happen with the Olympics, Murray said. I hope to make a run.Little did he know that by Sundays end, Novak Djokovic would be gone. That run just got a whole lot easier.
