Cal Basketball Trivia Help

PrintNeed some help on this trivia question about Cal Basketball.
Cal is now 14-0 at Home this season and 17-0 total, a record dating back to our loss against USC at home last season.
I read this in an article on Bearterritory.net: "The Bears have now won 17 consecutive games at Haas Pavilion, dating back to a 76-72 win over UCLA on Feb. 20, 2011. The streak is tied for the third-longest in school history. Cal last won 17 straight in Berkeley from Feb. 2 through Feb. 17, 2003. "
So here's the question: What are the two longer home winning streaks that are held higher than our current one of 17 in Cal Basketball history?
Thanks in advance.
Go Bears!

The longest is 26 games
From 1958 to 1960 at old Harmon Gym under Pete Newell.

2nd longest -- I think it is 23
From 1996 to 1999
I infer this answer from a combination of this article (which mentions an ongoing 17-game streak) and looking at year-by-year results from that time period (PDF here).
There’s a caveat here: a few of these games in the 23-game streak were technically “forfeited” by Cal because Todd Bozeman was a moron for the Jelani Gardner mess. So I’m not entirely sure this streak “counts.”
Also, this streak does not count “home” games played at the Oakland Coliseum or the Cow Palace. There were several home games (some of them losses) during this time period.
