WICHITA, Kan. (KWCH/Gray News) – Football will be a family affair at a high school in Kansas this year with the team boasting not one or two, but four sets of twins.
“It’s hard enough to learn 90 kids’ names,” said football coach Corby Milleson, the football coach at Wichita Southeast High School. “To have eight of those kids look like another player is a little more daunting.”
The twins are Donavan and Torean Kincaid, Mack and Will O’Bar, Evan and Ethan Brashear, and Jonas and Jonah Simmons.
“It’s nice to have other people who are kind of like you,” Mack O’Bar said.
Milleson had a tough time telling them apart, but he’s since figured it out.
“Ethan being an offensive lineman, he’s a little heavier. The Simmons, one is a little bit shorter. The Kincaids are really, really easy. But the O’Bars … I can tell them apart by jersey number,” he said.
The twins sometimes even fight like brothers.
“He kind of gets annoying sometimes,” Donovan Kincaid said. “You deal with it.”
But the team practices what they preach.
“Sometimes you can use them as like a little push to get better,” Jonah Simmons said.
Luckily for Milleson, all four groups of twins will be back next season.
There’s a fifth twin on the team, but his brother only plays basketball.
