There are two sets of twins at the Scripps National Spelling Bee this year -- something that's never happened before. When Andrew Marcev, Speller 264, spelled "Dorcopsis" correctly, it marked the first time twins have spelled correctly in competition.
Andrew's brother, Aaron, Speller 218, spelled "ghorkhar," a wild mammal in the same genus as the horse that is native to northwestern India.
The boys are Mississippi sixth graders.
