    Kenesha is one of the eight year old twins and she plays soccer. Dan is nine and he is a swimmer. Betty is ten and she plays baseball. Andrew is the other eight year old twin and basketball is his favorite sport.

    I believe Andrew plays basketball. Here is what I got:
    Betty plays baseball
    Kenesha plays soccer
    Dan plays Baseball + swimming
    So that leaves Andrew.

    Dan's favorite sport is swimming, Kenesha's favorite sport is soccer, Betty's favorite sport is baseball, and Andrew's favorite sport is basketball.

    First I read all of the clues in order.
    I found that Andrew and Kenesha can’t be the oldest because they are twins, so they are both 8.
    Dan can’t be the person who plays basketball because he goes to the pool every day in the summer, so swimming is his favorite.
    Kenesha is a great goalie so her sport is soccer – she is not it.
    That leaves Betty and Andrew. And since Andrew is 8, Betty must be the oldest and plays baseball.
    That leaves Andrew to like BASKETBALL!
