Coupeville’s Wonder Twins turn 17 tomorrow.
Marisa and Lucas Etzell will celebrate their birthdays in different countries, but the bond between the siblings never fades.
Both strong athletes — Marisa is a standout CHS soccer player and state meet veteran as a track runner, while Lucas is a Gold Medal-winning basketball player in the Special Olympics — they join older brother Ben and younger brother Nick to form a fearsome foursome.
They each have their own style.
Marisa is quiet but strong, able to hold her own with three brothers, while Lucas can talk to anyone, anytime and works his way through a crowd like a politician on the campaign trail, glad-handing everyone in sight.
They are both making an impact on the world, and it begins with their bond with each other.
May they celebrate many more birthdays together.
