Every day that passes means we get closer and closer to seeing your UCLA women's basketball team hit the floor together again in some official games for their 2023-2024 season. The headlines have already been filled with the Bruins as top experts and analysts break down their roster heading into their new campaign trying to predict how they will fare this time around.

The Bruins were able to find their way into the Sweet 16 last year but ultimately fell to the South Carolina Gamecocks. They will undoubtedly carry that chip on their shoulders this time around, especially during these next few months of preparation.

Therefore, Westwood's community should be very excited to hear that UCLA is officially going to be facing off in the annual Cayman Islands Classic Tournament this November. It is still just a preseason tournament but nonetheless an excellent opportunity to face off against other top programs.

These are definitely some of the best squads in women's basketball and it's great to know UCLA is in that mix.
