Edina High School juniors Walker and Weston Romens are identical twins. When asked separately “What is it like having a twin?” they gave nearly identical answers.
“I get asked that all the time. You usually have someone with you,” said Weston.
“A lot of people ask me that. You always have someone there with you,” said Walker.
They have the same friends, and both play hockey and golf. They look so similar, their own parents get them mixed up sometimes.
One way to tell them apart is during sports. “People can tell us apart in sports because we are mirror image twins, which means we shoot opposite in hockey,” explains Weston.
To investigate twin telepathy, I quizzed Weston and Walker on their knowledge of each other.
