Ryan Conwell nets 26 as No. 16 Louisville rolls over Cal

Ryan Conwell scored 26 points for No. 16 Louisville, which won its ACC opener for the first time in four seasons as the visiting Cardinals manhandled the Cal Bears 90-70 in Berkeley on Tuesday.

Louisville (11-2) once again was without freshman point guard Mikel Brown Jr., as the five-star recruit missed his third straight game with a back injury. The Cardinals, though, did not miss Brown as they scored the first 10 points and then enjoyed a 12-2 run to go up 31-13 after a Conwell 3-pointer with 8:01 left in the first half.
