Bill Foran (25 kills-13 digs-seven aces) and Josh Brozek (15 kills-10 blocks) earned all-tournament honors at Argo.

The Redwings will open the Glenbard East Springfest against will matches against Wheeling, Glenbard East and Montini in Pool A. Neuqua plays in Pool D against Larkin, Niles West and St. Francis.
