Janiah Barker produced 12 points and a season-high 13 rebounds as No. 1 UCLA powered to a 69-37 blowout of Cal Poly on Monday in Los Angeles.

The Bruins (11-0) scored the game's first nine points, starting with a Barker layup, and never trailed.

Angela Dugalic and Londynn Jones each added 12 points for UCLA, and Timea Gardiner had 11. The Bruins cruised despite shooting just 44.3 percent from the floor, well below their season mark of 50.4 percent, and committing 17 turnovers.

Mary Carter put up a team-best 11 points for the Mustangs (4-6), who fell for the fourth time in five games. No other player scored in double figures for Cal Poly, which made only 25.9 percent of its shots from the floor and gave the ball away 20 times.
