The Glenbrooks
Hosted by Glenbrook School District in the North Shore suburbs of Chicago, The Glenbrooks is the largest invitational tournament in the country hosted by a high school. Since 1994, it has been one of the first semester's most competitive tournaments with a national draw and a large, deep field.
Woodward has cleared 19 teams at The Glenbrooks since its inception in 1994. The War Eagles have advanced to the semifinals four times including a run of three years in a row between 2000 and 2002.
We did not attend the tournament in 2016, 2017, 2018, or 2019. We attended the online tournament in 2020 and 2021.
