Bio

Founding member of the Greeks — the team-within-a-team whose "arguably best skill is being able to spell their rather complex last names" — Jim Papa is the one who stuck around and got good. After apprentice seasons filling in wherever needed, the league officially certified him "much-improved" in Season 3, where he partnered captain Lachlan Jenkin on Black's memorable run: a quarter-final tiebreak win over Navy and a three-set semi-final that pushed the eventual champions to the brink. A career built on hustle, aces at surprising moments, and unwavering commitment to the Greek cause. The complex surname is spelled P-A-P-A, and the improvement curve is still pointing up.
