  "account": "On Sunday night, the Texas Longhorns women's basketball team faced off against the UCLA Bruins, giving fans an unexpected sight with their uniforms. This was a rematch exhibition game between the No. 6-ranked Longhorns and the reigning national champions, the UCLA Bruins, as part of the Nyle Maxwell's LoneStar Showcase. However, both teams faced a uniforms mishap before the game began. Instead of wearing their game-day jerseys, they both had to don their practice uniforms. UCLA head coach Cori Close expressed gratitude towards Texas head coach Vic Schaefer for their willingness to meet on level terms, donning their practice uniforms. The Longhorns emerged victorious, with Madison Booker scoring 21 points and Bryanna Preston contributing 20, including four threes. Both teams demonstrated sportsmanship and camaraderie, with Close acknowledging Schaefer's classy gesture. The Longhorns will participate in another exhibition game against Eastern New Mexico on October 29 before their regular season opener against Lehigh on November 2.",
