His brother, Dylan Duvio, filled in for Team Hanford as a late replacement and cleared a nation freshman class-leading 15-0 while wearing a red, white and blue Uncle Sam top hat.
He wore it in honor of a late friend, Josh Bertrand, who shared the hat with him at an Independence Day Meet vault July 3 in Louisiana.
Two weeks later, Bertrand was killed when his truck was hit by a train.
Then, at his funeral, his parents insisted Dylan Duvio keep the hat: "If I can, I'll wear it at every single meet. I don't know why bad things happen to good people."
