10. From 00 to 99, what is the highest number never to be worn on a CLX jersey?

I messed up this question. It was supposed to be "what is the lowest number never worn" or "starting from 00 and counting upwards, what is the first number to never have been worn". Something like that. Well, the answer was supposed to be 17. We've had a 00, a 0, and every number from 1-16. So, I can't even remember who wore 98, if any, so I through this question out. It didn't change any results.
