Team USA has released it's final roster for this week's VNL Final at the UIC Pavilion/Credit Union 1 Arena. Included on the roster are Loyola's Thomas Jaeschke and Jeff Jendryk. Jaeschke, who suffered a torn ACL just over a year ago at the Sears Centre, played his first match just a few weeks ago at the Sears Centre during VNL league play. Jendryk has been playing among a 4 or 5 player rotation of middle hitters.

Team USA plays Wednesday against France and Friday against Russia in pool play. The top two teams in the two pools of three will advance to the semifinals on Saturday ahead of Sunday's Final.
