Though Friedrich Vequain is known as a wide receiver for the legendary Tijuana Luchadores, not many people inside the football community are aware that Vequain is a living legend. Before starting his football career, Vequain left a legacy in the world of the yo-yo. Vequain started his yo-yo career early, first picking up a yo-yo at the age of two. After Vequain's parents recognised his rare and generational talent, at the age of four, Vequain was entered into the state tournament. This was Vequain's first taste of the professional stage, joining yo-yoers of many ages, from aspiring young adults to seasoned veterans. Vequain was the youngest participant by 16 years. Despite this, Vequain finished in 3rd place, remarkable, but Vequain was not satisfied. It took just one year for Vequain to win his first state championship, garnering national attention and breaking his first record - greatest yo-yo performance in Floriday yo-yo history, and being the youngest to ever win a state title. Vequain's legacy only expanded, winning consecutive international tournaments and solidifying himself as the greatest yo-yoer to walk the Earth. However, Vequain's legacy ended by the time he committed to Florida for football. He set football as his first priority and walked away from yo-yoing. Though Vequain is now successful in the DSFL at the moment, nobody knows if Vequain plans to return to yo-yoing, but his return would certainly be welcome. (232 words)
