Nothing like a little friendly competition among brothers. 。

On Saturday, twins from Lincoln, Nebraska, found themselves in an epic battle to win the 30th annual Lincoln Public Schools Spelling Bee. 。

As the 。Lincoln Star Journal 。reports, 12 year-olds Eswar and Sankar Ramamurthy found themselves in the final round — but had to go through 58 words before Eswar was eventually declared winner of the LPS Spelling Bee.。

“This is not something that happened overnight; they’ve been doing this for years now. They put in a lot of work and it’s paid off," she explained.。


The brothers competed against each other at last year's spelling bee as well. After correctly spelling "Byzantine," Eswar took home the title then, and Sankar landed in third place.。
