The pair of 9th graders impressed enough to make the Varsity roster, with both of them reaching milestones during the Colbert Heights game with the memory of their first career home runs.

The accomplishment for the two young men comes right around their birthday as well, as they turn 16 on April 22 this week.

According to their mother, Amanda, the twins have been playing baseball with one another since they were five years old.

They wear numbers 3 and 4, with Corder wearing the former and Curtis wearing the latter.

Elkmont, a 3A school, is approaching the end of their season, and updates will be provided on their remaining games.
