Take a peek at the Springfield boys and girls basketball rosters, and it doesn’t take long to notice something a little unusual. 

There’s Kaitlyn Kearney, a senior on the girls’ squad, and Keagan Kearney, a senior on the boys. Right below them on their respective rosters are Anabel Kreydt and Aidan Kreydt, respectively, two more seniors. Keep looking, and you’ll see Colin Treude, a junior on the boys’ roster…and Erin Treude, another junior, on the girls’ side. 

Yes, it’s certainly a family affair in Delco. Three sets of twins, all playing basketball for the Cougars, give Springfield (Delco.)’s two hoops programs a special connection.

“I just think it’s pretty cool that Springfield has three sets of twins that all play varsity basketball,” Colin Treude said. “I think it’s just really unique.”

For sure it is. And it doesn’t stop there.
