EUGENE, Ore. (AP) - Kourtney Shreve had 11 points and six rebounds before leaving with a mild concussion, and No. 20 Oregon used two 13-0 runs in the second half to beat UCLA 54-43 Saturday.
Angelina Wolvert, who had missed the last two games with a sprained ligament in her left knee, added seven points in 17 minutes for the Ducks (12-5, 5-2 Pac-10), who retained a share of the conference lead.
Michelle Greco had 17 points for UCLA (2-5, 3-15). The Bruins are assured a losing season, their first since 1996-97.
UCLA, the worst-shooting team in the Pac-10, shot just 22 percent. Greco was just 6-of-29, and 2-of-12 from 3-point range. The Bruins' second-leading scorer was Whitney Jones with seven points.
Oregon had its own trouble finding the basket in the first half, shooting just 24 percent to take a 24-19 halftime lead. Greco's bank shot to open the second half cut the lead to three, but the Ducks ran off 13 straight points, with Shreve scoring seven.
UCLA got within 39-27, but Oregon scored another 13 in a row to put it away.
The Ducks trailed 5-0 but went on a 10-0 run. UCLA then held them to just three more baskets over the next 15 1/2 minutes to keep it close.
