SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) --- Nate Kingz scored 27 points, Naithan George and William
Kyle III each had double-doubles, and Syracuse opened double overtime on an 8-2
spurt to outlast California for a 107-100 victory on Wednesday night.
After a Kyle free throw, Donnie Freeman made two layups, and Kingz made a
3-pointer to give Syracuse a 99-93 lead with 1:56 left in double-overtime.
Freeman added another layup before the Orange sealed it from the free-throw
line.
Syracuse had missed 15 of its previous 16 3-pointers before Naithan George hit
a 3 with 57 seconds left in regulation to give the Orange a 78-76 lead. A Dai
Dai Ames layup with 41 seconds left then tied it 78-all. The Orange committed a
turnover, and Ames missed a jumper at the buzzer to force overtime.
In the first OT, Ames airballed a shot but Milos Ilic secured the offensive
rebound and put it in at the buzzer to knot it at 91.
Kingz shot 8 of 14 from the floor and made three 3-pointers. J.J. Starling
added 21 points for Syracuse (14-11, 5-7 Atlantic Coast Conference). Kyle
finished with 15 points and 16 rebounds. George had 14 points and 10 assists.
Ames scored 23 points on 10-of-25 shooting and was 0 for 5 from long range.
John Camden made five 3s and scored 21 points for Cal (17-8, 5-7). Chris Bell
chipped in with 18 points. Ilic had 16 points and grabbed 14 rebounds.
The teams met for the first time at JMA Wireless Dome, which used a generator
due to power loss in Syracuse.
