The trophy went to Treia in the Vasto tournament. In a remake of last year’s league final, the Block devils surrendered to the Italian champions, who were especially good at the net (11 blocks). Perugia had a set point in the opening set but eventually lost it. Still, Atanasijevic finished top scorer with 17 points while Sunder made a good impression, attacking and blocking well.
