Two undefeated teams battle head-to-head for BISD alumni trophy.

BEAUMONT, Texas — The Friday night lights will be shining a spotlight on one of the biggest games in the 409 -- undefeated West Brook vs. undefeated Beaumont United.

This week's 409Sports Game of the Week is also BISD's second annual Alumni Bowl. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. Oct. 4 at BISD's Memorial Stadium.
