Freije's son Tyce Freije also placed third in the auctioneer's contest. Tyce Freije represents the fourth generation of the Freije family to work in the auction profession. Tyce and his ringman partner Taylor Knotts (also a member of Freije & Freije Team) placed third in the team competition today.
TJ has grown the family's personal property and real estate auction business into a nationally recognized firm for classic car auctions. Freije and Freije Auctioneers is a partner of Jeff Martin Auctioneers, Inc., North America's fastest-growing live auction company.

"All the glory goes to my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I hope to use this championship to be a witness for Him and to help promote the live auction method," stated Freije. "Growing up in football and coaching, my nickname was the Fridge. Our family and company talk a lot about #TeamFridge and what it means to be committed to family and our team. While this championship has been a major career goal, it pales in comparison to the goal of building a loving family at home and a dedicated team in our business."
