Overview
- UCLA trailed 45-43 at the break as Cal Poly drilled 9 of 17 threes by leaning into a perimeter-first plan.
- The Bruins poured in 65 points after halftime, their most in a second half since Dec. 22, 1994, to finish off a 108-87 win.
- Skyy Clark led the scoring with a season-high 30 points on 10-for-19 shooting, including 6-of-12 from deep.
- Mick Cronin swapped to a smaller look to open the second half, starting Jamar Brown, sliding Tyler Bilodeau to center and sparking a 15-0 run to a 60-47 lead.
- Cronin said the staff’s preparation fell short for Cal Poly’s three-heavy attack, and Xavier Booker did not play the second half after a recent ankle sprain.
