BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) - Kristine Anigwe scored 30 points and grabbed 17 rebounds and No. 24 Cal overcame Washington State 66-60 on Sunday.

Anigwe tied the game at 60 with a free throw with 1:40 remaining and gave the Golden Bears the lead on a jumper with 28 seconds left. Asha Thomas was fouled after a steal and added two free throws with 13 seconds left and two more with six seconds remaining. The Cougars didn't score again after Nike McClure's putback of her missed free throw with 2:03 to go.

Cal (13-4, 4-2 Pac-12) picked up its third straight conference win, the program's longest Pac-12 winning streak in the last three seasons.

Borislava Hristova scored 25 points and Louis Brown 10 for the Cougars (8-10, 1-5), who have lost five of their last six games.

Neither team led by six points in a game with 16 lead changes and 12 ties.
