WHO’S LEFT? | Not just in the ETBlitz area, but in East Texas? Ticket info, broadcast info for everybody

EDITOR’S NOTE: Here at ETBlitz.com, we cover (in alphabetical order) Arp, Gilmer, Gladewater, Henderson, Kilgore, Leverett’s Chapel, Overton, Sabine, Tatum, Troup, West Rusk and White Oak. That’s a mouthful. But only two of those programs – Kilgore and Overton – are still in the University Interscholastic League’s high school football playoffs. We know that a lot of you guys follow all of the East Texas teams when they get deep into the postseason. So what we’ve done here is place playoff information for all of the teams still in the mix that are considered by most to be “East Texas” teams.
