Zumbo of Amarillo Named WL Best Skipper
Thursday, November 26th , 2048
Amarillo manager John Zumbo was selected as the 2048 Western League Manager of the Year today.
He was somewhat of a dark horse next to some of the more flashy managers up for the award. Zumbo, who prefers that everyone call him "Cap" or "Skip," tries to shy away from the limelight in a media-driven world.
"It's really unfair to the guys that busted their humps all year long to put all the focus on me now. They showed up early, put in extra time in the cage, worked on their fielding, consulted with our coaching staff and really made 2048 a highlight in my career."
In fairness to this year's Manager of the Year, Zumbo certainly played an important part in the ThunderHeads success as he guided them to a first place finish in the Western League South Division and a 106-29 record.
