  1. It’s good that the twins have some good competition so this year they won’t play around with one slowing down to let the other win for the sake of sisterhood.

  2. @Preston Matthews serena cole, and one of the twins or brandy hall….one of the twins has a slight injury but is still running she is the one that is racing sparingly the other twin is ready to go

  3. @André Muir that’s my guess too. But they have been running sparingly this season. I like it. At Central one did the 100 the other the 200m
