LOS ANGELES -- No. 12 UCLA completed its three-game sweep of Oral Roberts Sunday with a 9-1 win over the Golden Eagles.

Blair Dunlap led off the bottom of the first with a solo home run to put the Bruins (16-0) on top 1-0.

UCLA used a five-run fourth to take a 6-0 advantage.

ORU (5-10) scored its lone run off of a bases loaded walk in the top of the sixth. The run made it a 6-1 game, but the Bruins added three more runs in the bottom of the sixth and surged to a 9-1 lead.

The Golden Eagles managed just five hits, four of which were singles.

Bryce Smolen gave up five runs (three earned) in 3.1 innings and suffered the loss for ORU.

The Golden Eagles host Wichita State 7 p.m., Tuesday at J.L. Johnson Stadium.
