New Market and Front Royal each have two, while Winchester, Waynesboro, Fauquier, Staunton, Harrisonburg, and Strasburg all have one. Purcellville, Charlottesville, Woodstock, and Covington are still waiting.
The 2013 New Market Rebels were 28-15 (12 teams, 44 games scheduled). So Adam Zipko saved 64.3% of the Rebels’ wins! (Bonus – a highly appropriate, and memorable, last name.)
