BERKELEY, Calif. â Aaron Holiday scored a team-high 21 points, while Thomas Welsh collected a double-double with 19 points as the UCLA men's basketball team earned a 107-84 win over California on Saturday from Haas Pavilion. The Bruins improve to 12-4 on the season and 3-1 during Pac-12 play.

The Golden Bears once again cut the lead to just 11 after hitting four shots from long range, but they would never get closer as Olesinski would complete a four-point play in the next possession to push the lead back to 15 points at 77-62 midway through the period.
Holiday had 14 of his 21 points in the second half on 4 of 6 shooting with a pair of 3-pointers as the Bruins shot 82 percent (9-11) from beyond the arc.

Welsh finished the first half with a double-double tallying 15 points on 5 of 7 shooting and 11 rebounds. Hands also added nine points in the opening half.
