SEATTLE -- California coach Wyking Jones calls his young team a work in progress, although they showed a significant growth spurt in the second half.

Darius McNeill scored 20 points and Justice Sueing added 17 as the two freshmen helped California pull away from a six-point halftime lead for an 81-59 victory over Seattle on Tuesday night.

"We're young, but the guys are picking up what we're telling them to do," Jones said. "They're giving us great effort. It's just a learning process for these young guys. Now, we've got two road wins, we got an overtime win in the last game, so they're maturing.
