Brownsboro’s Annual Great East Texas Shootout Gets Going Thursday Morning

One of the largest basketball tournaments in the state gets under way Thursday when the annual Great East Texas Shootout in Brownsboro tips off.

The event features 18 boys teams and 30 girls teams from across the region and throughout the state. Over the course of three days and at four different gyms in Brownsboro, there will be 95 basketball games taking place.

Tyler All Saints looks to defend its boys tournament championship — decided with a 69-66 victory over Sunnyvale — when the Trojans begin play against Palestine at 12:15 p.m. Thursday in the elementary school gym.

Last season's girls champion Georgetown is not in the field, but defending runner-up John Tyler is. The Lady Lions begin play against Kaufman at 9:30 a.m. Thursday in the elementary school gym.
