IT’S BEEN SAID BOYS WILL BE BOYS, and brothers Shane and Riley Friedman are just that. New York Family Sports caught up with this athletic tag team as they were wrestling each other to the ground and living out fantasies of WWE superstardom. But as we delved behind the headlocks, we learned that these two brothers love their sports and love to play together. This month, Riley plays for the Orange Crush with Docs Lacrosse and Shane perfects his baseball game with a travelling team called The Scorpions, in preparation for a summer at Camp Takajo. Here, the sporting siblings imagine an athlete’s perfect breakfast, reveal the truth about lacrosse middies and explain how the right haircut can improve your game.
You both attend Camp Takajo. My editor attended a rival Camp Winaukee. He says Winaukee beats Takajo no problem—every time. What would you like to tell him?
Both: No way!
Shane: Nope, we beat them every time last year.
Your mom must be putting name labels on your clothes for camp about now. How often does the camp laundry mix up your underwear?
Riley: [laughing] Sometimes it does.
Shane: I get my cousins T-shirts, too!
If you had to pick a favorite camp meal, what would it be?
Shane: Ice cream parties. I put everything on my ice cream, except cherries. I don’t like cherries.
Riley: I like when camp breakfast is pancakes and ice cream!
That’s the Takajo breakfast of champions?
Riley: Yep
On visiting day, what’s the one thing your mom better have in the candy bag for you?
Shane: Peppermint patties
Riley: Um, like a Heath Bar, Skor bar, and Easy Cheese!
Shane: Yeah, I like to put Easy Cheese on a Ritz cracker.
Riley: I just spray it in my mouth!
Riley, what got you into lacrosse?
Riley: I don’t know, my dad put me in Docs and I just started playing.
What is it that you like about playing lacrosse?
Riley: I don’t know
Shane: Oh, he doesn’t do anything there!
Riley: Nuh uh, I’m good.
Shane, it seems like you and Riley do a lot together— snowboarding, same camp, and same school—how come you don’t play lacrosse?
Shane: I don’t really like it. All you do is put a ball in a net and chuck it.
But isn’t that the same as basketball too, you just put the ball in the net?
Shane: [Riley laughs] Yeah but the only good part of lacrosse is if you’re midfield.
Riley: [passionately] No, no, you just get to whack people!
Riley, what position do you play?
Riley: Attack, I can’t play midfield. Midfield usually scores the most goals ‘cause they usually get the ball on every possession.
Shane: And they don’t pass!
You’re both fans of the WWE. So let me ask you guys, is the WWE a sport?
Shane: Yeah, it’s wrestling.
Riley: FAKE wrestling, but it’s a contact sport.
How come there are no WWE little leagues?
Riley: It’s too violent.
Shane: They have wrestling little leagues though.
If they had a WWE little league would you join?
Shane: It depends, like if the kids in it were really strong, or really weak.
Are you guys competitive when you play together at your Columbia Prep and Grammar School?
Riley: Yeah, during recess we play regular games a lot. And like my team wins every time!
Shane: Even if he has the worst team, he’ll still win, I don’t know why.
Riley: Exactly!
What’s your secret to winning, Riley?
Riley: I just distract them with my speed.
Shane: Oh, if it was you, Wesley Grubles and Zonkin, vs. Ryan, me, and Justin, then we would win!
Can the right haircut make better athletes?
Shane: Depends.
Riley: Well in lacrosse you’re under a helmet, so it would be better if you have shorter hair, then you don’t sweat as much.
Shane: If you have long hair you should just wear a hair band or a head band.
Your mom Cozy Friedman is the owner of Cozy Cuts. So, I gotta ask, where do you guys get your hair cut?
Riley: There!
Shane: I don’t know where I get my hair cut.
Does that mean no comment?
[Riley’s laughing]
Shane: Yup.
