MALIBU, California – Who are the best Waves ever to wear a particular number on their jersey or cap? This series will aim to identify the most accomplished Pepperdine student-athletes, number by number.
 
Today, the greats who wore number zero or double zero are featured. They have only been used by three sports: men's and women's basketball and women's soccer.
 
First, some caveats:

• Student-athletes before a certain year may not be included, as complete numerical rosters only go back so far. For the eight sports that wear numbers, only women's soccer and women's beach volleyball have every roster available.
• The complete numerical rosters for baseball (1971), men's basketball (1968-69), women's basketball (1979-80), men's volleyball (1975), women's indoor volleyball (1976) and men's water polo (1982) date back to the year shown here.
• In some cases, additional standout student-athletes from prior to those years were identified.
• Any student-athlete who received at least all-conference honors during this time, and others of note, were included based on current available information.
• Pepperdine sponsored football between the years of 1946 and 1961. Fifteen football players have been inducted into the Pepperdine Athletics Hall of Fame and those former student-athletes have been included in this series.

MEN'S BASKETBALL 

• Lorne Jackson (Simi Valley, Calif./Simi Valley HS) wore #0 as a fifth-year senior in 2012-13 after wearing #20 for his first four seasons. He earned All-WCC honorable mention honors that season. Jackson led the Waves with a 13.6 scoring average that season. He finished with 1,297 career points.
• Amadi Udenyi (Oakland, Calif./De La Salle HS/St. Thomas More) wore #0 for all five seasons (2014-18). He finished fourth on the Waves' all-time assist list with 426 and also ranks in the top five in career assist/turnover ratio (2.27). Udenyi is currently a graduate manager with the Waves.

WOMEN'S BASKETBALL 

• Lisa Siders (Pueblo, Colo./Pueblo South HS), wearing #00, was a four-time All-WCC honoree from 1994-97, including three times on the first team.
