A fiery Jozef Walus has come a long way since his freshman season for Reavis.
Reavis’ Jozef Walus lines up for a play against Lincoln-Way Central during a match in the Smack Attack at the Oak Lawn Pavilion on Saturday, April 20, 2024. Walus is now a junior outside hitter with two years of varsity experience. He’s a dangerous attacker who has been working on keeping his emotions in check.
Although the Rams finished seventh in the silver bracket of the Smack Attack, that loss proved they could make some elite competition sweat.“He’s really growing as a player — he’s been our go-to guy,” Jebens said. “He carries the load for us. When our backs are against the wall, he’s the guy who we are looking to step up and get a big kill or a big block for us.”
“If there is something we don’t want the refs to hear or the other team, I tell them to say it in Polish so the other team doesn’t know what they are saying,” Jebens said. “That’s one cool, little unique thing about our team. At one point on the court, four players are speaking Polish out there.”“We’ll just walk up and whisper to them,” Walus said. “And we teach them a few words.”
And this won’t be last time these national titans face each other, either. Both could be headed for a showdown again Saturday at the Lincoln-Way East’s Invitational.
