As usual, I overthought things and here is the result:
May's basketball Jersey number is 34. Check it out.
Not only do Ron Frenz and Pat Olliffe keep the numbering consistent (much as they did for May's wardrobe) but even guest artist Casey Jones was paying attention!
Davida's number is less consistent. It might have a '2' in it:
Does that '2' come from the number 20, perhaps?
Or maybe Davida's number is '11'? In fairness this was after both May and Nancy Lu left the team. Perhaps Davida changed her number.
Speaking of Nancy Lu, her number while attending Central High was also 11:
Oddly, we never actually see Nancy play for Midtown and thus it's unknown if she retained her number or changed it upon transferring to Midtown. it all takes place off-panel. Could it be that Davida changed her number to 11 because of the falling out she and Nancy had which led to Nancy's subsequent departure from the school?
Switching sports to Football now, Brad Miller's number seems to be 12:
Maurice 'Moose' Mansfield also plays on the team and we see an assortment of football jersey's throughout the series:
Considering he wears the number during practice, I'm going to assume his number is 35. I say 'assume' because he also wears other numbers:
So...maybe he has a collection of his favorite players jerseys which include
0,00,7 and 13? He is a sports fan after all. It's worth noting we don't see Moose's sport's stuff after he returns to Midtown. I wonder if he ever rejoined the team?
And now for the one no one was wondering about. Gene Thompson:
Gene's number is 7. It's on his letterman jacket which he gives to May (and Simone...) and it's on his jersey. He's nearly always wearing his sporting apparel so it's easy to deduce.
Well, that was a lot of fun. Until I find something else to overthink, I remain
frogoat
