The tournament sports eight-team brackets for both girls and boys, featuring Tyler teams and schools from across the state.
The Grace Community Lady Cougars kick things off at noon against Van, the first of six games on Thursday. After 10 games on Friday, the placing games are on Saturday. The girls championship game is slated for 3 p.m. while the boys title game follows at 4:30 p.m.
The Bishop Gorman Lady Crusaders have won the tournament all four years and are the favorites yet again with a squad that’s loaded with seniors eyeing a state title run.
All Saints won last year’s boys bracket, their first Brookshire Classic title, but graduated a slew of seniors. The Trojans were runners-up in 2010 and 2009.
