AUSTIN, Texas – Senior Imani Boyette posted her sixth double-double of the season with 24 points and 11 rebounds, and junior Kelsey Lang joined her with her first season double-double that featured a season-high 13 points and eight rebounds to lead the No. 5/6 Longhorns past Texas Tech, 86-62, in the conference home opener on Saturday night at the Frank Erwin Center.

With the win, the Longhorns (13-0, 2-0 Big 12 Conference) tie last year's squad for the third-best start in program history and are only six games away from the 1,000 victory milestone, an accomplishment achieved by only four other Division I programs in history.
