The Jones twins are one of the hardest working and most exciting players Vipers fans have ever witnessed, along with winning two National Championships and holding some franchise records should have their jerseys retired. Former captain and local product Jagger Williamson is another Vipers legend that has played the most games in franchise history should also have his jersey retired.
